While carousing through Rue Morgue Magazine's newest issue (#54 on newsstands now) I stumbled across a really juicy bit from an interview with Alex Aja, director of Fox Searchlight's upcoming The Hills Have Eyes. As you all know he's already announced his next project will be an original supernatural thriller entitled The Waiting, but what about after that? Can you say loads of gore with 'Evil Dead' sprinkled on top? Read on for the skinny...
From a segment of Rue Morgue's interview with Alex Aja:
"We're going to do it [The Waiting] in the spring."
Rue Morgue: And that's a shift to supernatural horror?
"Yeah, exactly. We wanted to totally go in another direction, see what we can do with some thing that's more about psychology and less about prosthetics and makeup and blood and stuff. It's another world, and my favorite horror movie is still 'The Shining'. 'The Waiting' won't be 'The Shining'- not even close- but it will be an exploration for me and my [filmmaking] partner Gregory Levasseur.
Here's the bomb:
"After that, maybe we'll come back with something more "popcorn" - spectacular gore. I'd like to make a real 'Evil Dead' type of film, something maybe not as real as 'Hills have Eyes' or 'High Tension;, but something really fun."
