Get Ready for Another "Stir of Echoes"
David Koepp's "Stir of Echoes" is one of the more underrated chillers of the past several years, and I can only guess that it was a big hit on DVD, because Lionsgate is putting together a sequel. Only don't expect to see Koepp returning, nor the presence of leading man Kevin Bacon...
From Variety: "Rob Lowe will star in sequel "Stir of Echoes: The Dead Speak," to be produced and financed by Lionsgate. Ernie Barbarash wrote the script for and will direct the horror thriller, which begins shooting in mid-July in Toronto. Story revolves around a soldier who returns home from a tour of duty in Iraq only to be haunted by visions of the dead."
Ernie Barbarash previously directed "Cube Zero."

on May 17 2006 07:42 AM nah. it was a wannabe sixth sense. it was good, but on the heels of shaymalan's hit, it was unable to distance the two. (Reply to this) |
on May 17 2006 08:02 PM [b]Sweet![/b] Maybe not so sweet. Stir of Echoes is one of my favorite horror movies of the last ten or so years. Good stuff, and it's not a 'wannabe sixth sense.' It has it's own style to it, and it's very clever. Though I'm a bit weary of the sequel.. I'll check it out. I like Rob Lowe. (Reply to this) |
on May 18 2006 01:44 AM I am a fan of the 1st one. I wish they would have stuck with the same family though because there was certainly room to continue that plotline with the little boy still being able to hear/see things. The fact that Kevin Bacon isn't in it is definately a downer as well, I liked him a lot in the first one. Oh well, this just gives me more hope that Serenity 2 will come :) (Reply to this) |

on May 18 2006 07:12 PM [b]MAKE IT STOP[/b] I'm one of the 2% of people out there that thought the Sixth Sense was crap and Stir Of Echoes was good. Not phenomenal, just good. Either way, the idea of a sequel is absurd, and if it doesn't even follow the same family, then this just screams "direct-to-video". (Reply to this) |
