Paranormal Activity producers/creators Oren Peli and Jason Blum are reuniting with writer Christopher B. Landon (Paranormal Activity 2, Paranormal Activity 3) for a new Latino-themed horror project, THR reports. Paramount will back the movie through the micro-budget mini-studio it set up in the wake of the success of Paranormal Activity..
Christopher B. Landon will write and direct the untitled project, which is described as a ‘cousin’ to the Paranormal Activity franchise. The movie will feature a Latino cast and will delve into Catholic-based paranormal mythology, although it will be presented in English, not Spanish. It is said that Latinos see more movies than any other demographic, and that Catholic-themed movies play particularly well in that market.
Paramount is aiming at a January 2013 release for this $1 miilion bugeted movie, which could start production within the next few months.
