A sequel to The Strangers has been discussed since the original film was released back in 2008. After several false starts, The Strangers 2 is finally happening!
Johannes Roberts (The Other Side of the Door) is on board to direct from a script by Bryan Bertino (who wrote and directed the original) and Ben Ketai (The Forest). The Fyzz Facility Pictures is producing in association with Relativity Media.
Bloom will be handling international sales at the European Film Market
in Berlin. Casting is currently underway, with shooting scheduled to
take place this summer. Here’s the synopsis:The Strangers 2 follows a family whose road trip takes a turn when they arrive at a secluded mobile home park and after the power goes out they decide to hunker down for the night in a borrowed trailer. Under the cover of darkness three familiar masked psychopaths pay them a visit to test their every limit.
As I said in my recent review of Bertino’s latest film, The Monster, I find The Strangers to be one of the most effective
modern horror movies. While I wish Bertino was back at the helm, and the decade-long wait for a follow-up may be difficult to overcome, I’m eager to see how the sequel plays out.
