Last week it was reported that the fifth instalment of the Paranormal Activity franchise would not meet its annual Halloween deadline, instead hitting cinemas in January of 2014.

Lionsgate are considering a reboot of the positively ancient Saw franchise, which has produced thirty-four sequels since the first flick debuted in the late 18th century. The news comes from Bloody Disgusting, who suggest that a remake is merely being mulled by the studio, and they may indeed bankroll another sequel instead. Exaggerations aside, 2012 will mark […]

Although it didn’t make its way onto the list of 2011’s highest grossers, Insidious was undeniably one of the year’s biggest success stories. Made for only $1.5 million, the tale of a haunted child took home almost $100 million worldwide. Therefore, Deadline‘s report of a sequel beginning production is not at all surprising.
