So Gale Ann Hurd has found the director for her long-anticipated new horror tentpole, Hellfest. It’s Jennifer Lynn Chambers, who’s actually been directing TV episodes for most of the last five years, and didn’t have a big theatrical hit even before that. And what’s the premise of the ground-breaking new franchise? Hold on to your hat:
The film follows a fun Halloween night at a horror theme park gone deadly when a costumed killer begins taking out unsuspecting revelers who believe the killings are part of the show.
A costumed killer. On Halloween. In an amusement park. Killing teens one by one.
No. Please stop. Too many surprises. Too much innovation. My heart can’t take it.
