Sam Raimi apparently wants to scare kids these days and he my achieve his goal in his new film. In a press release yesterday it was announced that director Sam Raimi was creating Spooky Picture, a division of his Ghost House label, wth intentions to make scary movies for the family audience. Hmm... could this be a reaction to Guillermo Del Toro announcing that he was setting up Disney Double Dare You, a specialty scary movie division just for the kids? Perhaps a new trend is starting amongst the horror masters to scare kids... haha
Raimi is kicking off his new division with The Substitute, an adaptation of a Danish thriller about a calss of 6th graders trying to prove that their sub is an evil alien. The writers of The Exorcism of Emily Rose will write this one as well.
So I'm hoping this works out cause kids are seekig out good quality scary movies these days. (As am I) They got no business watching Saw movies or Raimi's own Drag Me to Hell.
I hope this works out and I can't wait to see the films he dishes out.
