In fashion in recent years escape games have become the new subject of horror films. In Adam Robitel's Escape Game (The strange case of Deborah Logan, Insidious: the last key) six strangers meet to participate in a deadly game where only their intelligence will allow them to survive. Sort of a mix between Cube and Saw, this horrific closed-door thriller carried by the young Taylor Russell Mckenzie recorded more than $ 155.7 million at the international box office (for a budget of $ 9 million). A figure which - you will understand - gave ideas to Sony since the sequel will be released in our theaters on December 30, 2020.
BRIGHTBURN - THE CHILD OF EVIL (2019)
Produced by James Gunn (director of the Guardians of the Galaxy), Brightburn - The Evil Child takes up the myth of Superman except that here the adopted child is evil and wants to reign on Earth.

Director David Yarovesky was inspired by John Carpenter's Halloween for the scary and iconic appearance of his evil superhero. Jackson A. Dunn, the interpreter of the young flying predator also acted in Avengers: Endgame. He played Scott Lang, aka Ant-Man, at the age of 12.
