One of the most terrifying horror films of all time is back on the remake block.
The 1983 horror movie The Entity, about a woman who is tormented and sexually molested by an invisible demon, is getting the remake treatment from the creative team behind The Conjuring, says Heat Vision.
James Wan – best known for directing Saw, Dead Silence, The Conjuring, Insidious and even Fast 7 – will produce the remake with brothers Chad and Carey Hayes on board to pen the script. Roy Lee (The Ring, Godzilla, The Grudge, Poltergeist) will produce Entity with Wan.
Entity purportedly told the true story of Carla Moran, a single mom who was abused physically and sexually by a supernatural demon.
Barbara Hershey played Moran while Ron Silver played a doctor who believes the woman is actually abusing herself and experiencing delusions brought about by a troubled past. Also figuring into the proceedings was a young son, a boyfriend, and two parapsychologists.
Fox Atomic was once attached to release the remake that had Hideo Nakata (Ringu, The Ring Two) lined up to direct (May 30, 2007).
