‘The Strangers’ teaser. actually pretty creepy

I remember seeing some stills from this a while back, but seeing things moving actually makes me a little more excited to see the film. Sort of strikes me as a remake of Ils

‘Lost Boys 2: The Tribe’ more casting etc…

So they’re making the Lost Boys 2, It’s official. It’s being directed by P.J Pesce who appears to have done some horrendous shit, It’s going to be direct-to-video, but after reading some of the reports saying that ‘Wrong Turn 2′ doesn’t suck, maybe DTV sequels can cut the mustard afterall. hmmm.. we’ll see.
