Here what you can expect as far as the future for some of your favorite or popular horror movies.
1st: The Blair Witch Project series
*No Official Plot yet but is in the talks*
Directed by: Daniel Myrick & Eduardo Sánchez
It will be mixed first person view instead of the characters talking directly to the camera
Lionsgate still needs to approve the next movie in order for them to continue.
It is said to a continuation off of the first movie, completely ignoring the second movie(cause it sucked)
Original actors Heather Donahue, Joshua Leonard and Michael C. Williams may have brief cameo appearances in one form or another,
The original script was said to be a prequel set in 1786 where the Blair Witch legend originated from. The premise was written as follows: "This film chronicles the events that led to the township of Blair driving an accused witch named Elizabeth Kedward into the woods, and the subsequent hauntings that plaqued the town for decades after her supposed death."
Chance that this movie will ever happen: 4 out of 10.
A script was sent to Lionsgate in 2004 but it went to production and it has been in the talking stage for over a decade.
Jeepers Creepers 3
It is in development. It is going to directed/written by Victor Salva. And is starring Jonathan Breck,
Ray Wise, and Gina Phillips.
Set 23 years after the previous film, we follow Trish Jenner (Gina Phillips), who is now a mother. Realizing that the return of the Creeper is just around the corner, she begins to have terrible recurring nightmares of her own teenage son confronting the creature and suffering the same fate as her deceased brother. Now a rich and powerful woman, she's determined to finally put an end to the Creeper once and for all.
Victor Salva:
"Though I have been beating this drum for so long that people have started not to believe me, I am told they are very close to closing a financing deal for the third film in the trilogy. So I want to say yes, but let’s not jinx it by saying any more. My script for the film, which was written some time ago, sets up a TV series that features Poho County and The Creeper. The script has been ready to shoot for a while now."
It is still unsure if the movie will go straight to dvd or not. Victor Salva is hoping that it goes theatrical.
"Cathedral" is an important setting in this movie.
Writer/director Victor Salva promises new surprises in the story and claims that this will be the biggest of the three films.
We will see the return of the infamous truck the Creeper drove in the first movie.
Gina Phillips returns as the character "Trish" from the first film.
Actor Ray Wise reprises his role as "Jack Taggart Sr." from the previous film.
Jonathan Breck returns as the "Creeper."
The film will serve as a prequel and sequel, starting off in the "Old West" and then switching to twenty years after the events of the previous film.
This film has been in talks since before the sequel was released back in '03.
Chance that this movie will ever happen: 8 out of 10...because it's taking to damn long to see any real progress!
Quarantine 2: Terminal
The story picks up later that night from the previous film at LAX, as passengers board a flight to Nashville. When a passenger becomes violently ill with a mysterious rabies-like virus, the plane makes an emergency landing at a large metropolitan airport. Jenny (Mercedes Masohn), a heroic yet inexperienced flight attendant, takes charge of the safety of her passengers. Relieved when a swarm of heavily equipped emergency vehicles, police units and the CDC arrive, Jenny and the passengers soon discover that they have been quarantined and are now trapped. Desperate to escape, Jenny enlists the help of one of the surviving passengers, a kindergarten teacher, to devise a plan to survive.

It is directed/written by John Pogue.
It is going to expand on the mythology in the first film.
Chance that this movie will ever happen: 10 out of 10..its coming out this year!
Candyman 4
Set in New England in an all-girls college where a professor is the descendant of Candyman, yet she doesn't know who or what he is.
The project was in active development back in 2004, but likely never came to fruition due to licensing issues. Here's a quote from Tony Todd back in 2004:
"That problem that is going on much like many backstage workings, is determining who owns the "CANDYMAN" franchise. Which is strange to me because it's Clive's Character? But in dividing the first "CANDYMAN's" profits, the ownership went from Propaganda, to Sony, to Columbia, then to Artisan. Then Artisan became Lions Gate. As soon as it's all straightened out and it's determined who has to be paid before the film even gets written, then the movie will move forward."
With the success of
Freddy Vs. Jason, the studio reportedly spoke to Clive Barker about possibly making this a versus film, specifically with another one of Clive's franchises --
Hellraiser.
We would have seen a snow/blizzard element added to the film.
Once rumored to be budgeted at $25-million (had it actually been made).
Clive Barker was to serve as a consultant and executive producer.
You can view the original
Candyman 4 UHM page
here.
It's said that this was to be a stand-alone film and have no relation to the previous sequels.
Chance that this movie will ever happen: 1 1/2 out of 10.....the movie has stopped moving forward...but who knows what the future can hold...maybe it won't be made today...but hollywood is unpredictable.

Much like
The Final Destination, this sequel will be in 3D.
The Final Destination was originally intended to be the last installment in the franchise since development of the project was rough and the film itself received a lot of slack from critics, but the studio changed its mind when the pic made $66 million domestically and became a success overseas.

LeatherFace 3D
(This is not the official title)
It is in development
Producer Mark Burg has been quoted saying the following about the storyline:
"It's 35 years later, there's a relative going back. Why is he going back? I don't want to set it in a dusty town. How do we make it more urban but keep that feel. There will be some relatives, some new people. There's still the subtext of 'are they eating these people?' The whole idea of cannibalism, we're bringing it back."
Co-writer Adam Marcus also wrote/directed
Jason Goes to Hell: The Final Friday.
Stephen Susco (
The Grudge) wrote an early draft of the script, which has reportedly been scrapped.
It's rumored that a cult may somehow be involved in the storyline.
It's said this will be in 3D.
Platinum Dunes sold the rights to the franchise to Twisted Pictures (

Silent Hill:Revelation 3D

One of the producers was quoted saying: "
We are all excited to have the Silent Hill team reunited in Toronto. With Michael at the helm, we will be building on the first film and taking Silent Hill into new territory with an exciting storyline and visuals that should grab both new audiences and fans of the Silent Hill franchise."
Michael J. Bassett had this to say about what fans can expect from the upcoming film: "I love the games and was a huge admirer of the first film. Especially how Christophe Gans and his team managed to capture the look and feel of the world. I say, if it ain’t broke don’t fix it, so I’m bringing back as many of that core creative team as I can – but I’m probably going to bring just a little more darkness and fear into the mix as well. I love the complex mythology and psychological twists that Konami created so will do my best honour that aspect too.
I’m determined to deliver a film that builds on the qualities of the first film and draws on the best aspects of the games whilst giving the audience more nuanced characters, a compelling story and introducing some terrifying new monsters (as well as bringing back a few favourites) and, most important of all… just scaring the shit out of everyone."
Chance that this movie will ever happen: 9 out of 10. This movie NEEDS a sequel after the 1st movie ending and is said to be coming out this year!
