When io9 interviewed Danny and Michael Philippou—the siblings behind Discuss to Me, the summer season’s scariest film—they described the “mythology bible” they assembled to maintain observe of the story’s many creepy spirits. Now, it appears in addition they picked up their cameras to create extra contextual materials.
When you’ve seen Discuss to Me (and when you haven’t, this isn’t a spoiler), you recognize it opens with a scene that foreshadows what’ll occur to the film’s core characters as soon as they arrive into contact with a sure embalmed hand. We see a younger man making an attempt to trace down his brother, Duckett, who’s been appearing very unusual. Virtually like he’s possessed. Then, issues get scary and violent actually quick—setting the tone as Discuss to Me segues into its principal story.
Chatting with the Hollywood Reporter, Danny Philippou defined there’s already an expanded model of that scene that would see the sunshine of day finally: “We truly shot a whole Duckett prequel already. It’s informed totally by means of the angle of cellphones and social media, so possibly down the road we will launch that.”
He went on to not-so-subtly recommend they’d be greater than able to make a sequel if the chance presents itself, practically repeating what he stated to io9, which was: “Even whereas writing the primary movie, I used to be writing scenes for the second movie; it’s thrilling to really feel like there’s an even bigger world and extra story to inform, which there’s. So if somebody have been to provide us funding for a second movie, I might bounce on that. I’d love that a lot. It could be wonderful.” (The brothers, who’re connected to a Road Fighter film, even have extra authentic concepts within the financial institution; as Danny added to THR, “We do have one other horror script referred to as Carry Her Again that I’d like to make subsequent.”)
With the film already a success—and a ultimate scene that completely leaves the door open for extra freaky adventures with that excellently harmful hand—right here’s hoping we get an replace on that Discuss to Me sequel quickly.
