New Horror Stories for Your "Amusement"
by Scott Weinberg | May 26, 2006
Discuss Article
"Amusement," a new project from Jake Wade Wall, writer of the "When a Stranger Calls" remake, will soon be setting up at New Line. It seems to be a horror anthology thing, not unlike "Creepshow," "Tales from the Darkside" or ... "Grim Prairie Tales."

From The Hollywood Reporter: "Picturehouse and New Line International have acquired worldwide rights to the suspense, horror film "Amusement." (It) tells of three seemingly different women's fears. Simpson previously directed "Freeze Frame."

Mr. Wall also has the "Hitcher" remake underway.

it seems like everyday there's some tidbit on some new horror movie. is anyone else ready for this trend to go away? "the ring" was successful, i get it, that doesn't mean you have to make 10 billion horror movies a year, enough already

I love horror movies. True there are a bunch of crappy ones coming out lately but every now and then a good one comes out. Why complain about them making horror movies? All you have to do is ignore it and not see it.

Agreed. i also like horror movies and I actually think there is a shortage of good ones in theaters these days but I do hope the trend does not go away.

I think, gifted people should keep making horror movies. Every now and then, some gem would pop up for our pleasure. Alexandre Aja for example, with 'Haute Tension'.
