SDCC '09: Peter Jackson to Return to Horror
Friday, July 24, 2009

While Jackson evaded questions about returning to horror last night (he had his heart set on talking about building planes), he told Comic Con audiences that he wants to return to his evil roots still. JoBlo reports the following from Hall of of the San Diego Comic Con, "Someone asked producer Peter Jackson if he has any plans on returning to horror movies, and his answer was... YES! While he's producing THE HOBBIT, he's not gonna be there to look over Guillermo del Toro's shoulder, so he may find a little horror movie to make in the meantime, to keep himself busy." Can we get some more blood? Fingers crossed. Jackson directed the classics Dead Alive (Brain Dead), along with Meet the Feebles and Bad Taste.

If it's anything like Raimi's "return to horror" count me out.

While its good he wants to return to horror I highly doubt he'll make something along the lines of Dead Alive ever again. The guy now has a repectful oscar winning reputation to uphold

First Raimi, now Jackson. Let's hope this one is a rated R bloodfest!

Gore films yes, horror films no. His "horror" films were more comedy than anything!

If he does, then that's cool. I'd love him to make something along the lines of 'the frightners' again. Such an under-rated film and paved the way for alot fo the new special effects we see. The three disc version i got is just awesome!

Since he's already working with Guillermo Del Toro, he might as well take upon the task of directing THE STRAIN.

I would personally anticipate a return to horror by Peter Jackson. His early stuff was marvelously twisted and entertaining.

"he may find a little horror movie to make in the meantime, to keep himself busy" that's a worrying thing to say because if it's anything the same way Jackson feels about it, he's just using horror as a filler and should not be making horror if he sees it as a lesser genre
