Lin Shaye Talks ‘Insidious Chapter 3’!
Last night I hit up the red carpet at the Eyegore Awards before heading into the event itself. For those of you who are unfamiliar, the Eyegores are the ceremony that rings in Universal Studios Hollywood’s Halloween Horror Nights. Right after talking to Bruce Campbell and Fede Alvarez I was able to snag Lin Shaye, who plays Elise in the Insidious franchise.
Since we had recently spoken about both Insidious Chapter 2 and the film’s maze at the event, I was able to dive right into Insidious Chapter 3. If you’ve seen the second film, you know that she’ll figure into the new installments in a very unique way.
As for HHN, the active dates are September 20, 21, 22, 27, 28, October 4, 5, 6, 11, 12, 13, 17, 18, 19, 20, 24, 25, 26, 27, 31 and November 1, 2. Get tickets here.
Check out the quick interview below!
So now we get to talk about Insidious 3!
I’m so excited about it. Boy that was quick, wasn’t it? Like the next minute they announced it! I feel, and we all hope, that Elise has a lot of stories to tell inside of her. Leigh Whannell is going to be writing the third installment…
And maybe directing?
We don’t know, but if he did it would be awesome because nobody knows more about it than he does on that level. But I’m sure whoever they decide on [will be great]. And James Wan will have input in terms of his sensibility about the stories. I love all these people, all of them. James is a master and he’s just beginning to open up in that sense.
So will Elise be in The Further then? Will that world be expanded even more?
I have no idea. I saw Leigh the other night actually and he’s still throwing ideas around in his mind too. And if I have any thoughts, I’ll throw in my 2 cents when I have the opportunity. I know Leigh has a great story lurking inside of that big mind of his.

New Documentaries Explore the Cult Legacies of ‘The Keep’ and ‘Wolfen’; Watch the Trailers Now [Exclusive]
Undersung werewolf gem Wolfen and Michael Mann’s The Keep get the spotlight in a pair of feature documentaries acquired by Antenna Releasing.
A World War II Fairy Tale, which covers the infamous production of and reception to The Keep, will receive a limited theatrical release in October, followed by a TVOD release on Apple/Amazon. The Keep will also screen as a double feature for some showings.
For Uncovering Wolfen, Antenna eyes a limited theatrical release for 2027. Both films are currently available for booking via Antenna prior to their theatrical and digital releases.
Both documentaries are directed by Stewart Buck, who co-helms with Stéphane Piter on A World War II Fairy Tale.
“We at Antenna are obsessed with film history,” said Chief Acquisitions Officer Billy Ray Brewton. “Stewart has done such a remarkable job of really diving into the deepest recesses of how these films were made and, in doing so, has created the definitive histories of both projects.”
“We’re delighted to be partnering with Antenna Releasing!” said director Buck. “It’s refreshing to see a filmmaker-friendly approach to distribution with people who know what it’s like to be in the trenches with independent projects that struggle to find a home in the crowded marketplace.”
Check out our exclusive trailer and poster reveal of both documentaries below.
Released in 1983, Michael Mann’s The Keep was a notorious box office bomb, critically lambasted and all but forgotten for years, save for the fascination with Tangerine Dream’s iconic score. In recent years, the film has enjoyed a bit of a resurgence and is widely considered a cult classic, though director Michael Mann and many cast members refuse to acknowledge it.
Wolfen, on the other hand, was critical success but was overshadowed heavily by its flashier 1981 siblings An American Werewolf in London and The Howling. It’s also a trailblazer for socio-political horror, and the doc will explore that via the craftspeople who made it.
Look for them both in theaters soon. Stay tuned for more as it arrives.
