Looks Like ‘The Gallows 2’ Was Filmed in Secret
Released in 2015, Warner Bros/New Line’s The Gallows may not have been a hit with fans or critics, but the low-budget film proved to be pretty damn profitable at the box office. Made for a mere $100,000, the found footage effort made over $40 million worldwide!
Regardless, we hadn’t heard a peep about a potential sequel, but we’re now learning that The Gallows 2 has apparently been shot in secret. Ticketing website 1 iota has revealed that there will be an advanced screening of The Gallows 2 on the WB lot in Burbank, California this afternoon.
According to the site, here’s the plot for The Gallows 2…
After aspiring actress Ana Rue transfers to a prestigious new school, her desires are twisted by a viral challenge capable of conjuring a malevolent spirit.
The cast includes Ema Horvath, Brittany Falardeau and Chris Milligan.
Weirdly, the site does not list off who directed the film.
We’re doing more digging…

Julia Garner Joins Horror Movie ‘Weapons’ from the Director of ‘Barbarian’
In addition to Leigh Whannell’s upcoming Universal Monsters movie Wolf Man, Julia Garner (The Royal Hotel) has also joined the cast of Weapons, THR has announced tonight.
Weapons is the new horror movie from New Line Cinema and director Zach Cregger (Barbarian), with Julia Garner joining the previously announced Josh Brolin (Dune 2).
The upcoming Weapons is from writer/director Zach Cregger, who will also produce alongside his Barbarian producing team: Roy Lee of Vertigo and J.D. Lifshitz and Raphael Margules of BoulderLight Pictures. Vertigo’s Miri Yoon also produces.
The Hollywood Reporter teases, “Plot details for Weapons are being kept holstered but it is described as a multi and inter-related story horror epic that tonally is in the vein of Magnolia, the 1999 actor-crammed showcase from filmmaker Paul Thomas Anderson.”
Cregger was a founding member and writer for the New York comedy troupe “The Whitest Kids U’Know,” which he started while attending The School of Visual Arts. The award-winning group’s self-titled sketch comedy show ran for five seasons on IFC-TV and Fuse. He was also a series regular on Jimmy Fallon’s NBC series “Guys with Kids” and the TBS hit series “Wrecked,” and was featured in a recurring role on the NBC series “About a Boy.”
Weapons will be distributed worldwide by Warner Bros. Pictures.
