John Landis still has a huge amount of goodwill from film and music fans all over, thanks to his American Werewolf in London, Animal House and the Thriller video. However, his last movie, Burke & Hare, was absolute tripe and it looked like he was more keen on tv projects now, having directed episodes of Psychoville, and Masters of Horror. But now it seems he’s returning to full-on movie horror, according to Collider..
In talking to Bloody Disgusting, he said;
“Actually, I’m writing [a horror film] with Alexandre Gavras and we’re shooting it within the next two years in Paris. Yeah, a little monster movie. It has no title [yet].”
Exciting, yes? No word if he’s directing, but let’s be positive here. Do you think that he has the chops to crank out a good horror after the woeful Burke & Hare? His episodes of Masters of Horror were certainly decent, and Landis has a strong love of horror that goes back years. Here’s hoping it’s a good one.
