I Want Leslie

.

And to complete a full trilogy of mind-blowing horror stories hitting me this morning, we have actual news about the long, long, loooooong talked-about sequel to 2006's wonderful meta-slasher Behind the Mask: The Rise of Leslie Vernon (my review here).

BD has word from a horror-con in LA that happened this weekend where a bunch of the original film's cast and crew talked about how they've got everything in place except the backing for the film - they just need to prove there's a want for the movie to happen, and everybody will come back to make it happen. If a horrible sequel to a semi-horrible movie like Hatchet can be made, and that horrible sequel lead to a third presumably horrible film that's in the works right now, I don't understand why this can't. I'll send in 20 bucks!

For now BD suggests heading to the sequel's Facebook page - it's apparently called Before the Mask: The Return of Leslie Vernon, so perhaps there'll be some prequelizing here? - and "liking" it. So do that.  Because that's what makes the world turn now! Anyway I'll keep y'all informed with every nugget, as I do.
