TIFF ’11: The Amazing Looking ‘You’re Next’ Likely To Be One Of The Next Fest Buys!

Published

I absolutely can’t wait to see You’re Next . Everything I’ve seen and heard indicates I would have a total blast with the movie. And now it seems I might not have to wait very long at all to see it!

Per The Hollywood Reporter, “The horror thriller directed by Adam Wingard had its Toronto premiere Saturday night, playing before a crowd that at times pressed against the seats in suspense, tensely gripped handles, laughed, and cheered when someone bit the dust in a magnificent fashion… But the real action took place in the lobby and outside the doors of the Ryerson Theatre, where Lionsgate executives, including chief Joe Drake, huddled on one side, while Summit’s Erik Feig paced like a tiger on the other. Weinstein Co. and CBS Films execs were seen on phones, and this being at 2:30 AM, they likely weren’t calling their buddies. The buyer interest in the movies wasn’t just high, it bordered on salivation.

Producer Keith Calder has a way of summing up the movie that totally sells me, “[it reminds me of] Home Alone as a horror movie.

A Horrible Way to Die director Adam Wingard with writer Simon Barrett (Dead Birds, Red Sands) bring you the film in which “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.

The ’90s slasher franchise I Know What You Did Last Summer is headed back to the big screen with a brand new movie that’s been dated for theatrical release in Summer 2025.

The franchise will return to theaters on July 18, 2025.

Jennifer Kaytin Robinson (Do Revenge) is on board to direct the new installment in the franchise for Sony, with Leah McKendrick (M.F.A.) writing the screenplay.

We don’t yet know if the original cast will be back for the new movie, but we’ve previously heard that both Jennifer Love Hewitt and Freddie Prinze Jr. were potentially returning.

I believe they call that a “legacy sequel,” kids. Stay tuned for more.

Jim Gillespie directed the original I Know What You Did Last Summer back in 1997, written by Kevin Williamson (Scream) and based on Lois Duncan’s novel. The film spawned sequels in 1998 and 2006. Jennifer Love Hewitt and Freddie Prinze Jr. only came back for that first sequel.

In the 1997 slasher movie, “Four young friends bound by a tragic accident are reunited when they find themselves being stalked by a hook-wielding maniac in their small seaside town.”

More recently, the franchise returned with Amazon’s short-lived television series.
