Fifth Insidious film on the way with Patrick Wilson directing in debut!

After word circled from the star and franchise lead Lin Shaye (The Call) through this year, it’s now been confirmed that a fifth installment in the Leigh Whannell-created Insidious horror franchise is on the way with Patrick Wilson (Aquaman) both reprising his role as Josh Lambert as well as making his directorial debut!

“From the directing side, if you told me a few years ago, ‘Do you want your directorial debut to be a horror movie?’ I’d have said, ‘No, it’s not me,’” Wilson expressed during the film’s panel. “A lot of that is out of fear, because I’ve been sitting next to James Wan for a long time now and what I realized was that if I found the right story to tell, it didn’t matter which genre. When this opportunity presented itself, thanks to Jason, Leigh, James and everyone else involved, I realized this is the exact debut that I want to make as a director, the exact people that I want to make it with and the exact story. We rarely get the opportunity to come back 10 years later, especially if you think about the lore of Insidious and this family, specifically me and Tye, our characters being hypnotized, what does that do to a family after 10 years, how often do you get to come back, even as actors, and unpack that, so the director side of me said, ‘Hang on, this is a fantastic idea, I would love to jump at this,’ because if there’s one thing James told me, it was ‘Find a story that you want to tell,’ and when Leigh had presented this idea, I thought the bones of it I latched on to.”

Announced as part of Blumhouse Productions’ special digital event BlumFest, it was confirmed that Wilson will return alongside on-screen son Dalton Lambert (Ty Simpkins, Jurassic World) and will see the story pick up a decade after the events of their last outing, Chapter 2, with Dalton heading off to college and coming to grips with his astral projection abilities as well as growing up. For the first time in the franchise, the script will not be penned by creator/star Whannell but instead by Scott Teems (Halloween Kills) on a story from The Invisible Man writer/director, with Jason Blum also revealing a planned 2022 theatrical release for the film.

The first film hit theaters in April 2011 and was a major success, earning generally positive reviews from critics and audiences and scaring up just under $100 million at the box office. Its success not only helped revive Wan’s and writer Leigh Whannell’s careers but also helped Blumhouse Productions continue their rise to its current mammoth status of box office champion.

CS Video: Bob Gale on His Kolchak Episode & Poltergeist Contribution

ComingSoon.net had the chance to speak 1:1 with Back to the Future writer/producer Bob Gale for the 4K Blu-ray release, out now in the US and UK. During the conversation we asked Gale about he and Robert Zemeckis’ first produced credit, the 15 episode of Kolchak: The Night Stalker titled “Chopper.” First airing January 31, 1975, the story centered around Darren McGavin’s reporter Carl Kolchak investigating a headless biker, and also influenced an uncredited contribution from Gale & Zemeckis to the 1982 horror classic Poltergeist! Check out what he had to say in the video below!

ComingSoon Staff’s Scariest Moviegoing Experiences!

To celebrate Halloween this year, the ComingSoon staff is sharing our scariest moviegoing experiences! From being frightened in a theater or at home due to some truly terrifying movies and tricks of the imagination, haunted by movie-related pranks thanks to untrustworthy grandmothers, or scaring the hell out of our friends with a few classic horror titles, you can check out our scary stories below!

RELATED: ComingSoon’s 2020 Halloween Gift Guide Video!

MAX EVRY: THE ORPHANAGE (2007)

Click here to purchase The Orphanage!

Even a year or two into my being a movie journalist in New York City I realized that critics screenings were an emotional wasteland. Critics here are generally jaded, cynical, and have a “seen it all” attitude. There has been many a screening where I’m the only one in the audience laughing, and forget about getting a clap or cheer out of these mummies. On occasions where I wanted a more engaging audience experience for certain movies, I’ve intentionally skipped critics screenings because they’re so stifling. However, that all changed during the first NYC critics screening of The Orphanage on November 29, 2007, at the (now sadly shuttered) Magno Review 1 on 7th and 49th.

Riding on the name recognition of its producer Guillermo del Toro, Spanish helmer Juan Antonio Bayona’s debut feature unfolded as the tale of a woman named Laura (Belén Rueda) who attempts to reopen her former childhood orphanage as a facility for disabled children. On the night of reopening her adopted son Simón (Roger Príncep) goes missing, and thus begins a supernatural odyssey of Laura attempting to discover what happened to her child.

Every type of scare is in this movie: Slow burn dread, jump scares, creaking doors, ghostly apparitions, etc. At every one I heard/felt the crowd of been-there-done-that professional critics get audibly frightened, even whimpering at times. When they were meant to be jolted they jumped, when they were meant to be in terrified suspense they were practically hiding behind the seats in front of them, including myself. It was a miraculous occurrence, and one that was never quite duplicated in the time I’ve lived and worked here.

Bayona was firing on all cylinders when he made The Orphanage, to the point where attempts to do an English-language remake (with director Larry Fessenden) have failed because there’s simply no topping it. Even Bayona himself has never quite lived up to his promise in subsequent films, including the bloated Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom. If you have never seen The Orphanage you owe it to yourself to turn off the lights and pop it on this Halloween season!

KYLIE HEMMERT: JAWS (1975)

Click here to purchase Jaws!

My scariest movie experience was more thanks to my best friend’s grandmother than it was the movie itself, which happened to be Jaws. This was during a visit to California when I was a kid, probably around six. My friend, his brother, and my family were on a trip and took a night to catch up with my friend’s grandparents, Mac and Jodi. The adults decided we should have a Jaws movie night that was going swimmingly until the hours stretched on and it was time to take a bath before bed.

Being the cheeky woman she was, Grandma Jodi thought it would be hilarious to quietly tell little, impressionable and trusting me that I needed to be careful because sharks were capable of swimming up through the bathtub drain and could eat people that way — it wasn’t just the ocean you had to be scared of. I vividly remember staring at the drain the entire time I was in the bath that night, terrified, but never telling a soul about Jodi’s “secret” until I was a little older. When I did finally share the story, it suddenly became very clear to my mom why I stopped taking baths altogether and would only shower for a long time after that.

Watching Child’s Play when I was way too young with my brother and cousins and lying awake terrified in my older cousin’s bedroom staring at her porcelain dolls waiting for them to make a move is a close runner-up — not to mention the time that same cousin and I screamed bloody murder at a poor cinema employee that unintentionally scared us while we sat alone in the dark, empty theater watching What Lies Beneath when I was 11 — but actually believing this old lady about Jaws swimming up pipes and munching on people and being petrified (for way too long) to get into a bathtub takes the cake for my scariest movie experience.

GRANT HERMANNS: THE CONJURING (2013) & ANNABELLE: CREATION (2017)

Click here to purchase The Conjuring!

Click here to purchase Annabelle: Creation!

As it did for many kids, it took me a while to truly get into the horror genre, with the series adaptation of Goosebumps being the most I could really handle, but as I entered my pre-teens and started to really watch more, the time finally came to have my first theater experience in the form of the Fede Álvarez-helmed reboot of the Evil Dead franchise. However, this was not my scariest moviegoing experience, as that would come just three months later in the form of James Wan’s horror magnum opus The Conjuring. To this day, I’ve seen the film probably about 100 times and nearly every jump scare, every visual, every haunting musical note from Joseph Bishara, rattles me to my core. I couldn’t sleep right for three days after seeing the film in theaters thanks to the amazingly horrific wardrobe shock given as I have a shelving system sitting across from my bed and all I could do was picture a shadow atop it.

Now I thought nothing could ever top this experience until I decided to use a rare day off from three jobs and school to catch David F. Sandberg’s Annabelle: Creation in theaters, and though the film itself may not have been as frightening as Wan’s, oh boy was going to the film a nightmare. From a nearly empty theater save one person sitting at the end of my row to my mind playing tricks on me with shadows moving around in the corners, seeing this film alone did not nearly work out as well as I had intended, especially as I stayed for the post-credits sequence with Valak/The Nun as she glided slowly towards the camera and staring out before it cut to black. With me actually being the only person in the audience at that moment, it felt like she was staring directly at me and when I say I had goosebumps, I had more than RL Stine could ever write.

MAGGIE DELA PAZ: SILENT HILL (2006)

Click here to purchase Silent Hill!

I may not have any scary theater experiences but I do vividly remember the one horror film that truly scared me. When I was probably around 11 years old, Silent Hill was one of the many movies that my family had a chance to rent at the only video rental store in our city. For people who aren’t familiar with director Christophe Gans’ Silent Hill, the 2006 film centers around a mother and her adopted daughter as they get trapped in a purgatory-like dimension of Silent Hill where it is being inhabited by terrifying creatures and a cruel cult.

At that time, I thought that the film wouldn’t be that scary and that I can handle whatever the film has in store for me. Unfortunately, I was so wrong. As it turns out, 11-year-old me wasn’t ready at all for a movie filled with skin ripping and body slicing. By the time the main characters have arrived at the titular town, I embarrassingly started covering my eyes with my hands, especially when the film finally introduces the giant Pyramid Head man with a large executioner sword. This film was actually the one that made me realize that I hate gory scenes. I think this was the only horror movie that made me scared to fall asleep due to fear of getting trapped in a Silent Hill-like nightmare.

What makes the film so effectively terrifying to me was its desolate atmosphere and menacing setting that gives you an unsettling preview of what hell might look like. The film’s horrifying creatures and the idea of accidentally getting trapped in an inescapable nightmare dimension are still bothering me to this day.

JEFF AMES: JOHN CARPENTER’S THE THING (1982)

Click here to purchase The Thing!

Some of my favorite horror film experiences occurred during late-night sleepovers with high school buddies during which I would subject them to classic films such as Alien or The Silence of the Lambs — movies I had seen dozens of times before — in the hopes of replicating something akin to a theater-going experience.

One such flick was John Carpenter’s The Thing, perhaps the nastiest film I had seen up until that point in my young life. Suffice to say, I was eager to see how my friends would react to the flick’s gross-out thrills and overtly nihilistic tone. Much to my surprise, the group spent more time early on poking fun at the Quaker Oats guy and the dated technology than the actual narrative. I was worried I’d made a huge mistake.

Then the dog scene happened. Nervous chuckles. As the film wore on and the proceedings became grizzlier, any and all laughter was replaced by silence. Then came the breaking point: the famous scene in which the chest of a man literally morphs into a mouth filled with razor-sharp teeth that proceeds to bite the arms off another man in bloody fashion. I heard one of my friends mutter a “holy shit” under his breath. The others stared in awe as a detached head sprouted legs and walked across the floor. “You gotta be fucking kidding,” exclaims David Clennon’s Palmer, echoing everyone’s mood.

For the remainder of the film, no one said much of anything. When the film ended, there was a notable lack of exuberant conversation. More than anything, a feeling of unease lingered in the air, which, I imagine, wasn’t too far removed from audience reactions on opening night back in June of 1982.

Of all the films I forced my friends to watch, The Thing evoked the greatest silence I have ever heard. Ah, John Carpenter. You sick, brilliant bastard.

Brian Tyree Henry jumps aboard David Leitch’s Bullet Train

David Leitch’s ensemble action thriller Bullet Train, led by Brad Pitt (Once Upon a Time in Hollywood), has expanded its roster with the addition of Emmy nominee Brian Tyree Henry (Atlanta, Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse), according to Deadline.

RELATED: Brad Pitt’s Bullet Train Adds Aaron Taylor-Johnson

Bullet Train will mark the eighth collaboration between David Leitch (Hobbs & Shaw) and Pitt, who first worked together in 1999 on Fight Club on which Leitch worked as an uncredited stunt double for Pitt, followed by 2001’s The Mexican, Ocean’s Eleven and Spy Game, the latter two in which he doubled again for Pitt and helped coordinate the martial arts stunts on the Tony Scott-helmed film. Leitch would once again double for Pitt in 2004’s Troy and 2005’s Mr. & Mrs. Smith and would later reunite with the star in 2018’s Deadpool 2, in which Pitt cameoed as Vanisher and Leitch directed.

On top of directing, Leitch will supervise the script written by Zak Olkewicz (Fear Street). Plot details for the film are currently being kept under wraps, but it is based on the Japanese novel Maria Beetle by Isaka Kotaro. The cast for the film, led by Pitt, already includes Aaron Taylor-Johnson (Kick-Ass), Andrew Koji (Warrior) and Joey King (The Lie).

Leitch and Kelly McCormick will produce the project via their company 87North along with Antoine Fuqua (The Magnificent Seven, Training Day, The Equalizer) and Kat Samick (The Equalizer, Southpaw, Infinite). Brittany Morrissey is the executive overseeing the film for Sony Pictures.

Leitch and McCormick recently signed a first-look deal at Universal and produced the action film Nobody, starring Better Call Saul’s Bob Odenkirk, which is expected to release in February 2021. The duo is also developing a biopic of Jutta Kleinschmidt, the first and only woman to win the brutal off-road endurance race known as The Dakar Rally, as well as the rights to her book My Victory at Dakar.

He is next set to appear alongside Scarlett Johansson (Avengers: Infinity War) and Adam Driver (BlacKkKlansman) in an untitled Noah Baumbach Project.

Amblin Partners acquired the rights to turn writer-director Jacob Chase’s horror short, Larry, into a feature-length film back in February of this year. The Picture Company partners Andrew Rona and Alex Heineman produced the project, which is written and directed by Chase.

Queenpins will center on the story of a suburban housewife, fed up with being dismissed and overlooked by her husband and society, who decides to take back control of her life by starting an illegal coupon club. Her creation ends up scamming millions of dollars from big food companies while delivering deals to millions of fellow coupon clippers.

Bell will re-team with her The Good Place and Veronica Mars co-star Kirby Howell-Baptiste, as well as Vince Vaughn (Freaky, Fighting With My Family) and Paul Walter Hauser (Da 5 Bloods, Richard Jewell).

The film is written and will be directed by Aron Gaudet and Gita Pullapilly and produced by AGC Studios, Marquee Entertainment, and Red Hour Films. AGC’s Linda McDonough will produce alongside Red Hour’s Nicky Weinstock. AGC Studios Chairman Stuart Ford and Miguel A. Palos, Jr. will executive produce alongside Ben Stiller and Breean Solberg of Red Hour. The project was developed by McDonough under her Marquee Entertainment banner prior to joining AGC earlier this year.

Dad’s Army | New to BritBox, Exclusive | 88 X 30, 1 X 45, 1 X 60

Written by Jimmy Perry (Hi-de-Hi!, The Gnomes of Dulwich) and David Croft (‘Allo ‘Allo!, Hi-de-Hi!), this iconic British sitcom follows the struggles of a Home Guard platoon during World War II. With the threat of invasion from Nazi Germany, Home Guard was formed with men not yet in the regular army. Due to many of the Home Guard volunteers being older, the force became known as “Dad’s Army”. Filled with beloved characters, coined catchphrases, and hilarious incompetence, it’s no wonder that this BBC program is undoubtedly regarded as one of the most iconic British sitcoms of all time.

‘Allo ‘Allo! | New to BritBox, Partially Exclusive | 38 X 22, 54 X 30, 2 X 45, 1 X 50

Meet René, the most wanted man in Occupied France and a mustachioed café owner. Women want his body, the Resistance wants his brain and the Nazis want his sausage! In a small café in Nouvion, the harassed proprietor is having a trying war. With the German army in residence in the bar, René is risking his neck to aid the Resistance by hiding two British airmen and a radio transmitter upstairs in his mother-in-law’s bedroom. He is also involved in hiding the priceless painting of the Fallen Madonna with the Big Boobies in a large sausage which even now is being sniffed out by the Gestapo. But Rene’s real problem is his wife, Edith, and what she will do to him when she finds out about the affairs he is having with his two sexy waitresses. From outright farce to unsubtle double entendres and mother-in-law jokes, this British sitcom is humor which easily travels. It has crazy characters and even crazier plots, a wealth of catchphrases and, of course, René – the most improbable French hero since Inspector Clouseau.
