STIGMATA 2
Looks like MGM aims to do a
video-store follow-up to the 2000 Rupert Wainwright
occult thriller in which Patricia Arquette bleeds
all the hell over the place. Co-starring Gabriel
Byrne and Jonathan Pryce, Stigmata grossed about $50
million bucks -- and probably did pretty well on DVD
too. Hence the late-arriving semi-sequel.
According to Shock, the sequel
will be written by one Sean Hood, the art director
turned screenwriter that horror freaks will no doubt
remember from flicks like Cube 2, Crow 4, and
Halloween 8. No word yet on who'll be directing the
sequel, but hey, Rupert Wainwright's last gig was
that abysmal remake of The Fog, so he's probably up
for this assignment.
