‘ChromeSkull’ Comes After Image Entertainment

Published

on

Image Entertainment has acquired all North American distribution rights to ChromeSkull: Laid to Rest 2 (set report), the sequel to the 2008 cult horror film Laid to Rest.

Starring Brian Austin Green (“Desperate Housewives”), Danielle Harris (Halloween II, Hatchet II), Johnathon Schaech (That Thing You Do, The Poker Club), Gail O’Grady (“NYPD Blue,” “Hellcats”), Owain Yeoman (“The Mentalist”), along with LTR 1 alums Thomas Dekker (“Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles”) and Nick Principe as “ChromeSkull,” the sequel is once again directed by award-winning special effects makeup wizard Robert Hall, and co-written by Hall and Kevin Bocarde, who also co-produced.

ChromeSkull: Laid to Rest 2 picks up three months after the end of the first film. Tommy (Dekker), who’s struggling with vivid memories of his first encounter with the masked killer, has been abducted by Preston (Green), who harbors a mysterious connection to ChromeSkull (Principe). Meanwhile, the technologically saavy slasher — he videotapes his victims as he’s killing them — has set his sights on Jess (Michaels), and after the young girl disappears, Detective King (Yeoman) races against time to find her and Tommy before it’s too late and try to put an end to ChromeSkull’s blood-soaked legacy.

Sleepy Hollow movie

Paramount is heading to Sleepy Hollow with a brand new feature film take on the classic Headless Horseman tale, with Lindsey Anderson Beer (Pet Sematary: Bloodlines) announced to direct the movie back in 2022. But is that project still happening, now two years later?

The Hollywood Reporter lets us know this afternoon that Paramount Pictures has renewed its first-look deal with Lindsey Anderson Beer, and one of the projects on the upcoming slate is the aforementioned Sleepy Hollow movie that was originally announced two years ago.

THR details, “Additional projects on the development slate include… Sleepy Hollow with Anderson Beer attached to write, direct, and produce alongside Todd Garner of Broken Road.”

You can learn more about the slate over on The Hollywood Reporter. It also includes a supernatural thriller titled Here Comes the Dark from the writers of Don’t Worry Darling.

The origin of all things Sleepy Hollow is of course Washington Irving’s story “The Legend of Sleepy Hollow,” which was first published in 1819. Tim Burton adapted the tale for the big screen in 1999, that film starring Johnny Depp as main character Ichabod Crane.

More recently, the FOX series “Sleepy Hollow” was also based on Washington Irving’s tale of Crane and the Headless Horseman. The series lasted four seasons, cancelled in 2017.
