AFM ’11: Director Sharpens Teeth for ‘Last House in the Woods’ Sequel
Bloody Disgusting learned today that Gabriele Albanesi will direct Kid in the Box, the sequel of the gruesome and pretty entertaining The Last House in the Woods released in 2008 in USA by Sam Raimi’s Ghost House Underground.
In the project are involved big names of Italian Horror as Sergio Stivaletti to the special effects and Claudio Simonetti to the original music.
“In my intentions KID IN THE BOX will be a great, powerful, romantic, epic horror film and to realize it I collected the best people that have made the history of this kind of cinema” said Albanesi.
In Last House in the Woods, a young couple are saved by a seemingly nice older couple after a fight with some punks. While there, the wounded woman begins to realize that some frightening things are occurring the house…
The previous film of Albanesi, Ubaldo Terzani Horror Show, will be released in USA in January 2012 on DVD and Blu-ray disc by Rarovideo USA. 
The filmmakers behind Winnie the Pooh: Blood and Honey are expanding their public domain horror universe with a handful of upcoming “Poohniverse” movies, including Bambi: The Reckoning, Pinocchio: Unstrung, and Peter Pan’s Neverland Nightmare.
Variety has scored the first image from Neverland Nightmare, seen above.
The website details, “Peter Pan’s Neverland Nightmare follows Wendy Darling as she strikes out in an attempt to rescue her brother Michael from ‘the clutches of the evil Peter Pan.’ Along the way she meets Tinkerbell, who in this twisted version of the story will be seen taking heroine, convinced that it’s pixie dust.”
Scott Jeffrey will direct Peter Pan’s Neverland Nightmare, expected Halloween 2024.
Jeffrey tells us, “I am taking inspiration from French cinema while in prep for this movie. The film will be incredibly tense. I would say it’s a mesh between Switchblade Romance and The Black Phone with our own spin on it. It is a nasty, violent and incredibly dark movie.”
Megan Placito has joined the cast as Wendy Darling, Kit Green is Tinkerbell, Peter DeSouza-Feighoney (The Pope’s Exorcist) is Michael Darling and Charity Kase (RuPaul Drag Race) is James. Martin Portlock will be playing the twisted version of Peter Pan.
Created by J.M. Barrie way back in 1902, the character of Peter Pan – like Winnie the Pooh – is in the public domain, even if the iconic Disney iteration of the character is very much not.
