[AFM ’13] ‘Room 237’ Director To Mess With Your Sleep In ‘The Nightmare’
This sounds like the kind of thing I might not even watch. Not because it doesn’t sound good, it sounds great. I just don’t want to be even more afraid of my nightmares than I already am.
Content announced today that Room 237 director Rodney Ascher The Nightmare, “a disturbing investigation into the demonic visions experienced by victims of sleep paralysis and provoked by Ascher’s own unsettling experiences with the condition.”
The Nightmare is produced by Preferred Film & TV‘s Ross M. Dinerstein (The Pact, Dark Summer) and Kevin Iwashina (Jiro Dreams Of Sushi) and Glen Zipper (Undefeated). The horror documentary is executive produced by Content’s Jamie Carmichael (The Pact, Black Book).
Room 237 was a mindf*ck even if I objectively disagreed with most of its theories, so imagine something much more subjective… like dreams. I’m scared to watch this thing already.
Filming is underway on The Invisible Man director Leigh Whannell’s Wolf Man for Universal and Blumhouse, which will be howling its way into theaters on January 17, 2025.
Deadline reports that Matilda Firth (Disenchanted) is the latest actor to sign on, joining Christopher Abbott (Poor Things), Julia Garner (The Royal Hotel), and Sam Jaeger.
The project will mark Whannell’s second monster movie and fourth directing collaboration with Blumhouse Productions (The Invisible Man, Upgrade, Insidious: Chapter 3).
Wolf Man stars Christopher Abbott as a man whose family is being terrorized by a lethal predator.
Writers include Whannell & Corbett Tuck as well as Lauren Schuker Blum & Rebecca Angelo.
Jason Blum is producing the film. Ryan Gosling, Ken Kao, Bea Sequeira, Mel Turner and Whannell are executive producers. Wolf Man is a Blumhouse and Motel Movies production.
In the wake of the failed Dark Universe, Leigh Whannell’s The Invisible Man has been the only real success story for the Universal Monsters brand, which has been struggling with recent box office flops including the comedic Renfield and period horror movie The Last Voyage of the Demeter. Giving him the keys to the castle once more seems like a wise idea, to say the least.
