The name Blumhouse Productions is becoming synonymous with mega cash producing horror movies. Since ‘Insidious 2‘ grossed over $40 million at the box office opening weekend, which led to a third film being made, the production company has given the go ahead on another new horror film franchise called ‘Incarnate‘, which is set to star Two-Face himself, Aaron Eckhart.
‘Incarnate‘ seems to go the possession movie route that will follow an exorcist who can dig deep into the mind of the possessed person and help them out, but meets his match when a nine-year old boy is possessed by a strong demon from his past. Brad Peyton will direct from a script from Ronnie Christensen. I have know idea why Peyton is directing this, as his resume seems to be kids films such as ‘Cats and Dogs: The Revenge of Kitty Galore‘ and the last two ‘Journey‘ films. Then you have writer Ronnie Christensen, who seems to have written only bad made for tv movies.
Eckhart is awesome, but this is looking to be done on the cheap with another PG-13 rating, with a sub-par talent crew. I hope for the best, but expectations are at an all-time low for this project.
