PopGoesTheNews.com Director Darren Lynn Bousman, who spooked audiences with three Saw sequels, is back in Toronto getting ready to make another frightening flick.
Bousman is busily scouting locations and casting for The Barrens, a movie he penned about a family fighting for their lives on a wilderness vacation after the father starts believing they're being stalked by a horned beast.
Bousman, a Kansas native, directed the first three Saw sequels as well as Repo! The Genetic Opera in Toronto and made last year's Mother's Day in Winnipeg. Arriving in Toronto last month for pre-production of The Barrens, he took to Twitter to declare: "Oh Toronto how I have missed you."
The director's next movie to hit cinemas is 11.11.11 (opening on...well, you can figure it out), a thriller about an entity from another world that enters the earthly realm through Heaven's 11th gate.
The Barrens (not to be confused with the Canadian classic novel Lost in the Barrens by Farley Mowat) is scheduled to shoot from Sept. 26 to Oct. 21.
