When io9 interviewed Danny and Michael Philippou—the siblings behind Talk to Me, the summer season’s scariest film—they described the “mythology bible” they assembled to maintain monitor of the story’s many creepy spirits. Now, it appears additionally they picked up their cameras to create further contextual materials.
Should you’ve seen Discuss to Me (and for those who haven’t, this isn’t a spoiler), you recognize it opens with a scene that foreshadows what’ll occur to the film’s core characters as soon as they arrive into contact with a sure embalmed hand. We see a younger man attempting to trace down his brother, Duckett, who’s been performing very unusual. Nearly like he’s possessed. Then, issues get scary and violent actually quick—setting the tone as Discuss to Me segues into its principal story.
Talking to the Hollywood Reporter, Danny Philippou defined there’s already an expanded model of that scene that would see the sunshine of day finally: “We really shot a whole Duckett prequel already. It’s instructed solely by way of the angle of cell phones and social media, so possibly down the road we will launch that.”
He went on to not-so-subtly counsel they’d be greater than able to make a sequel if the chance presents itself, almost repeating what he said to io9, which was: “Even whereas writing the primary movie, I used to be writing scenes for the second movie; it’s thrilling to really feel like there’s an even bigger world and extra story to inform, which there’s. So if somebody had been to offer us funding for a second movie, I’d leap on that. I’d love that a lot. It could be wonderful.” (The brothers, who’re connected to a Road Fighter film, even have extra authentic concepts within the financial institution; as Danny added to THR, “We do have one other horror script known as Carry Her Again that I’d like to make subsequent.”)
With the film already a success—and a last scene that completely leaves the door open for extra freaky adventures with that excellently harmful hand—right here’s hoping we get an replace on that Discuss to Me sequel quickly. And the “prequel” sounds prefer it’d make a nifty particular function as soon as Discuss to Me will get its residence launch. For now, it’s nonetheless poised to scare you foolish in theaters.
