Second Season of “Wolf Creek” Coming This Year; Exclusive Preview from Greg McLean

Published

We haven’t seen the last of Mick Taylor.

I am a HUGE fan of the Wolf Creek franchise and of its lead villain, Mick Taylor. Brilliantly played by John Jarratt across two films and thus far one season of a spinoff TV series, Taylor is one of the great horror icons of our time, and the franchise has proven to be a gift that keeps on giving.

Unfortunately, I haven’t seen the first season of Stan’s “Wolf Creek” series, which hits DVD on March 21st, but I’ll take our own Luis H.C.’s word for it: he called the series “unexpectedly brilliant,” and even named it the second best horror show of 2016. High praise, to say the least.

So can we expect a second season of “Wolf Creek”? And if so, when? Stan just took to Twitter today to announce that a second season will be hitting the network later this year!

We caught up with franchise creator Greg McLean (The Belko Experiment) immediately after hearing the news, and he was kind enough to exclusively tease the second season for us:

It will again be an intense and scary horror/thriller but this time out it’s an entirely new set of characters and storyline. At the center of it all will be the evil Mick Taylor – who takes his hobby of hunting and killing to shocking and chilling new levels as we delve deeper into his twisted psyche.

So there you have it. Mick’s coming back, baby!

Are you watching? Ishana Night Shyamalan has clearly been paying attention to her father, M. Night Shyamalan. Not only is she following in his footsteps as a filmmaker, but she’s also embracing a similar mystique surrounding her work.

The new trailer for her feature directorial debut, The Watchers, gives viewers a taste of what’s in store. AreYouWatching.com has launched with even more clues.

Visit the site to join the mysterious creatures that lurk in the Irish forest as you observe a shelter. From the time the sun sets at 7:30 PM until it rises at 5:55 AM, four strangers played by Dakota Fanning, Georgina Campbell, Oliver Finnegan, and Olwen Fouere can be seen trapped inside.

You’ll find several interactive items. Click on the gramophone to set the mood with some spooky music. Tap on the birdcage to hear an ominous message from the parrot inside: “I’m going out, try not to die.” Press on the TV to watch clips from a fake reality show called Lair of Love. And if you tap on the window during the daytime … they’ll tap back.

There are also Easter eggs hidden at specific times. We’ve discovered three: a disorienting shot of Fanning’s character’s car at 5:52 PM, a closer view of the captives at 11:11 PM, and a glimpse of monitors at 12:46 AM. Let us know if you find any more in the comments…

The Watchers opens in theaters on June 14 via New Line Cinema. Ishana Night Shyamalan writes and directs, based on the 2022 novel of the same name by A.M. Shine. M. Night Shyamalan produces.
