“Stranger Things” Creators Being Sued For Plagiarism

As Matt and Ross Duffer, the creator of Netflix’s “Stranger Things“, gear up for the third season they are headed to court. They have been accused of stealing the plot of the hit series. While they have tried to get the plagiarism lawsuit thrown out, their attempts have been unsuccessful. Now they will go before an LA judge to defend themselves. Director Charlie Kessler is suing the duo for allegedly stealing the idea for the show from his found footage short film Montauk. Kessler also alleges that he pitched a series based on the short to the Duffer brothers during a party in 2014 during the Tribeca Film Festival, but they reportedly didn’t have any interest. Kessler even expressed plans to adapt his short for a feature film during an interview with /Film back in 2010. In April 2015 Netflix announced the series now named “Stranger Things” under the original title Montauk. The plot for Kessler’s film is as follows:

‘Last Exorcism’ Director Teaming Up With ‘The Strangers’ Writer For ‘Them’

Following this month’s episode of Hulu and Blumhouse’s holiday-themed horror series “Into the Dark”, titled “Down”, director Daniel Stamm (The Last Exorcism) teased his upcoming horror film, a home invasion thriller, during a conversation with Daily Dead. His next project titled Them was written by Bryan Bertino (The Strangers). Them, set in Texas, centers on a group of oil workers attacked by something out in the desert and sounds like a new spin on the home invasion genre. I’m hopefully directing next a movie called They, written by Bryan Bertino and produced by Dark Castle. We’re casting now,” Stamm told the site. “Bryan Bertino is the guy who wrote and directed The Strangers, and he has a talent for writing set pieces that are really fresh, interesting, and unpredictable. It’s so hard to do something original and fresh in the home invasion space, because there are only so many ways to scare someone.” Stamm continued, “It’s home invasion… all set
