Jackson Stewart, the writer of 2016’s Beyond the Gates is now working on the script for the sequel, titled The Day After Halloween, with co-writer Stephen Scarlata, EW reports.
First revealed to Shock Waves, Stewart had this to say: “It’s basically what happens to the ‘final girl’ after the end of a slasher movie. It moves into a kind of weird metaphysical direction that I don’t think people would really expect from this type of movie, but it should be fun.”
The Day After Halloween centers on “Alice Caldwell, the sole survivor of a Halloween night massacre, who soon finds herself under intense scrutiny from the local media. As she struggles with the traumatic aftermath, a mysterious presence begins brutally murdering anyone who’s wronged her.”
Beyond the Gates was a surprise indie hit amongst genre fans. Check out the trailer.
