The Big Picture Horror fans heads up, co-directors Brendan Faulkner and Thomas Doran’s cult classic filmSpookies is getting a sequel, Bloody Disgusting has reported. The movie starring Felix Ward, Dan Scott, and more, went through some production trouble before its theatrical release but eventually upon its home release found a larger audience and a cult classic status.

Frank Farel who co-wrote the movie with Faulkner and Doran, recently revealed his plans for the sequel. “Remarkably, has done well enough in its revival that I’m at the start of raising financing for a sequel,” Farel revealed. The original feature follows a group of young adults, who find an abandoned mansion to party. Things take a turn when a warlock tries to sacrifice the group to use their vitality to keep his wife alive and traps the group inside the mansion.

The Spookies Sequel Will Be Radically Different Farel divulged that he’s “hoping to get a couple of name horror actors into it.” Given the demand for better and better horror flicks, fans would love to see some of their genre favorites in the sequel. However, the scribe says that he doesn’t want to continue the same story, “I’m also looking to make a film that is almost an anti-sequel. I don’t just want to rehash what was done the first time.

Sounds like Farel is trying to sideline the production troubles faced by the 1987 movie as he doesn't “want to even make a typical sequel.” He shares, “I want to make something that’s an animal of its own. It’s different in so many ways. The way I’m doing it, it’s almost intended as a mockery of what happened to our original film.
