TIFF ’11: Stalkers Declare ‘You’re Next’: See Scream Queen Barbara Crampton!
Out of all of the Toronto International Film Festival premieres (full list), the one I’m most excited for is You’re Next!, a fresh spin on the home invasion subgenre that reteams A Horrible Way to Die director Adam Wingard with writer Simon Barrett (Dead Birds, Red Sands).
Having its world premiere at the “Midnight Madness” portion of TIFF, we scored some remarkable first official hi-res stills, while we also discovered that one of the “teaser” images (lo-res screengrab, sorry guys) features ’80s scream queen Barbara Crampton (Re-Animator, From Beyond, Castle Freak, Puppet Master and even Chopping Mall)!!
Sharni Vinson (Bait), Nick Tucci (Undocumented, Choose), Wendy Glenn (11-11-11), AJ Bowen (House of the Devil, Hatchet II, The Signal), Joe Swanberg, Margaret Laney, Amy Seimetz, Ti West (director of The Innkeepers, House of the Devil, The Roost), Calvin Reeder (director of The Oregonian), Larry Fessenden (Glass Eye Pix producer, director of The Last Winter, Habit), Kate Lyn Sheil (Silver Bullets), and Rob Moran also star.
“In ‘You’re Next’ the Davison family comes under attack from a terrifying group of sadistic murderers during a family reunion getaway. Barricaded in their secluded vacation home, they fight off a barrage of axes, crossbows and machetes from both inside and outside the house. However, the masked killers didn’t count on Erin (Vinson), the young girlfriend of the eldest Davison son whose mysterious past has made her very difficult to kill.”
Look, it’s Barbara Crampton!
In the wake of last year’s box office hit Insidious: The Red Door, Sony has announced tonight that the next installment in the Insidious franchise has been dated for 2025 release.
You can expect the untitled next movie in theaters August 29, 2025.
Deadline notes in their report tonight that this particular project is NOT the previously announced spinoff movie Thread: An Insidious Tale, which doesn’t yet have a release date.
Mandy Moore and Kumail Nanjiani will star in Thread: An Insidious Tale.
Director James Wan’s original Insidious movie in 2011 was followed by Insidious: Chapter 2 (2013), Insidious: Chapter 3 (2015), Insidious: The Last Key (2018), and last year’s Insidious: The Red Door, which became the highest grossing movie in the entire franchise thus far.
Needless to say, this franchise still has a lot of life left in it. Stay tuned for more.
