Trick 'r Treat 2

[Forever Knight]

Loved the first one. Bring it on!

Rough Outline? I thought they had this one rolling already...can't wait for the sequel or even a prequel...kind of a cool thought to see Sam back in the dark ages of Halloween

I'm all over it. Trick 'r Treat is one of my most watched blu-rays. Probably won't be seeing Krampus in theaters, but I wish it well.

Why do I feel like this is going to take forever/never come to light? I remember freaking out when it was announced... and it has been YEARS now and they only have a rough outline? I'm all for taking their time and doing a good job with it, but how much longer will it be? At this point, I can't see it being released probably until Fall 2017. Because I don't think they would release it outside the fall... and even if the were to start shooting next summer, it wouldn't be ready for quite some time. So I think the earliest possible would be Fall 2017 at this point

I'd rather they take their time than do it right, than rush it and have it underwhelm. I have enough stuff I want to see in the meantime to hold me over.

Krampus' good showing at the Box Office certainly won't hurt its chances. I'd wager we'll get it in 2017 at the latest. I'd say Dougherty will get started on this ASAP.

TRICK 'R TREAT 2 UPDATE

In a new commentary moderated by Dead Meat’s James A. Janisse and Chelsea Rebecca, Doughtery confirms that he wrote Trick ‘r Treat 2 with his Krampus collaborators Todd Casey and Zach Shields and it’s already storyboarded, but getting it made within the studio system is complicated.

“It’s tricky, because I think we really did capture lightning in a bottle with this one, and it nearly killed me. What a lot of people don’t realize is that the bulk of our favorite horror movies, especially the ones that introduced new horror icons, were all independent movies,” Dougherty explains, citing the likes of Halloween, Friday the 13th, and The Texas Chain Saw Massacre.

“There aren’t the typical metrics that a studio can point to to make it an easy ‘yes.’ Something I was adamant about in the sequel was that it has to retain this nonlinear storytelling, [and] it has to retain that weird mix of horror and comedy,” he notes.

Dougherty continues, “I want to do it. It’s not dead by any stretch. We have some momentum moving in the right direction for sure, but I’m also of the belief that I’m not going to compromise or make sacrifice just to make a sequel. It has the be under the right conditions with the right resources. Otherwise, I will be content with just letting this be this weird little movie that fought its way through a lot of adversity.”

He adds, “But I’m very, very happy with the script for the sequel.”
