A new horror story hit theaters this week and, according to its director, David F. Sanberg (“Annabelle 2”, “when the lights go out”), has franchise . Entitled “Until Dawn” production is adaptation of classic game released in 2015.
“It would be nice to be able to expand the two at the same time, you could have a game, then the movie, then another game and another movie, and certainly there are more things you could do here because of the concept. We could explore it with different characters in a different place, There are many opportunities ”, said Sanberg in an exclusive interview with CNN .
In the game “Until Dawn” players bump into a survival narrative amid an environment surrounded by elements of terror. All user choices may have other consequences later in history.
Game characters may have different destinations depending on the player’s decision, which also implies different ways of dying. This aspect will be passed to the movie which, according to director, is Different from the game with new characters, but which serves as a “Expansion” of history .
In the movie, Sanberg plays with the concept of “Time Loop”, a concept that brings a scenario where a certain period of time repeats continually, as if stuck in a cycle. A similar production that illustrates the technique is “Death gives you congratulations” (2017).
Such a resource allowed the director to explore different ways to kill his characters and thus bring varied premises of the terror genre to innovate and continue scaring and terrorizing the public.
“Before I did ‘Until Dawn’ I thought about what would be a perfect terror project. Would it be Slasher? Or supernatural?” The filmmaker said.
“Making this movie was like a dream that came true because in the end I was able to put all these different horror genres in a movie that is full of monsters, blood, practical effects, makeup, with elements of a gore and slasher, with also the supernatural,” he added. “It’s a big mix.”
“Until Dawn” is starring the actors Maia Mitchell, Belmont Cameli, Peter Stormare, Ella Rubin, Michael Cimino, Ji-Young Yoo and Odessa A’zizion .
