‘Paranormal Activity’ Creator Sends Commercial Director to Ghost Town
FilmNation Entertainment is getting behind a currently untitled post-apocalyptic thriller from Oren Peli, director of Paranormal Activity, Area 51 and producer on Insidious and The Lords of Salem. Peli has tapped commercials helmer Brad Parker to direct, reports Variety.
Based on Peli’s own story, here are some extended plot details: “A group of friends become stranded in an eerie and desolate city. Years before in the aftermath of a nuclear disaster, nature has begun to reclaim everything. As the sun sets on this radioactive ghost town, inhuman cries cut through the night air. It seems they are not alone.”
Peli will be teaming with Mother’s Day, Friday the 13th, Dark City and Final Destination producer Brian Witten! They’re calling the project “a new and entirely compelling vision of terror.”
While we wait for the remake starring Bill Skarsgård to hit theaters this summer, we’ve learned that the original adaptation of The Crow is headed back to theaters later this month.
Cinemark brings director Alex Proyas’ The Crow back to theaters for the classic movie’s 30th anniversary as part of the “Scream Greats” label from Paramount Scares and Fangoria.
You’ll be able to see The Crow up on the big screen at Cinemark theaters on two nights only: May 29 & May 30. Head over to Cinemark’s website to check local listings now.
In the 1994 movie starring the late Brandon Lee, Eric Draven’s fiancée is killed alongside Draven, setting the film’s revenge storyline into motion. It spawned a handful of sequels.
Cinemark previews the 30th anniversary event, “The modern-gothic original that entranced audiences and critics alike, The Crow tells the tale of a young musician brutally murdered alongside his beloved fiancée, only to be risen from the grave by a mysterious crow. Seeking revenge, he battles a criminal underground that must answer for its crimes.
“Adapted from the comic book saga of the same name, this action-packed thriller from director Alex Proyas (Dark City) features hypnotic style, dazzling visuals, and a soulful performance by the late Brandon Lee. Bonus content with the feature: Production designer Alex McDowell revisits the goth masterpiece, taking us on a deep dive covering all facets of designing the film.”
