Dennis Iliadis appears drawn to horror of all
shades. He has remade Wes Craven’s Last House on the Left and being
rumoured as the man to bring The Birds
back to the screen. Now the LA Times reports that he’s
looking to try something original for a future film, in the shape of The Demonologists.
Teddy Tenenbaum [Ghost Whisperer] wrote the
script for the film that follows a veteran family-run team of spook-hunters who get called in for what they
think is just a standard ghost-vanquishing job, but are shocked to discover
that the house they arrive at is actually in the midst of a terrifying demonic
possession. The Times’ report mentions it bears quite a lot in common with
cult ‘80s chiller House. Joel Silver’s company is behind the movie,
which doesn’t yet have a cast attached.
