When The Exorcism of Emily Rose director Scott Derrickson strayed from horror with The Day The earth Stood Still is didn’t work out so well, and as a result he returned to creepiness with Sinister (while also developing the biblically based Goliath).
Now he’s signed up for another chilling tale, Beware The Night, according to TheWrap. Derrickson will both direct and re-write the paranormal police thriller, which follows a New York police officer investigating real life demon possessions, exorcisms and werewolves after dark.
Apparently Mark Wahlberg was offered the lead role, but he passed, so it’s still up for grabs.
