Halloween Horror Nights 28 General Discussion

[horrornights789]

Ok I just realized that Surprise would connect to Happy Death Day, mostly due to due to during surprise birthday parties when someone says “Surprise!”. Also that was a scene in Happy Death Day.

It would be great if Time Warner or if Blumhouse took the rights for Scream. But it will most likely go to Lionsgate.

If Lionsgate gets it then it’ll be easy to get since we had SAW last year and in 19.

What about A Quiet Place?

If anyone responds to this with posts containing spoilers, please use a big *SPOILERS* warning at the beginning of the post.

Why so? I'm not very savvy in the business world, why would Lionsgate get them?

Lionsgate has home video rights with new Weinstein titles.

The scream trilogy was distributed on Blu-ray by Lionsgate.

That’s just a guess. They could go to Starz/Anchor Bay.

This is a gamble.

The scream trilogy was distributed on Blu-ray by Lionsgate.

Without knowing the ins and outs of the contractual arrangements I’d guess Lionsgate only have distribution rights. Assuming this is the case, then Lionsgate would only be able to distribute the films via different mediums (ie dvd/Blu-ray, cinema, etc). They would not have the right to alter, exploit, or otherwise monetise the IP. But as I said, this is only my guess, not fact.

Happy Death Day will not be a House with Orlando. Only if horrors of Blumhouse came back. Don’t get me wrong the movie was good but as a house it would throw mainstream people off.

My guess for IPs could be just Stranger Things and Trick R’ Treat. There may be some random ones. Poltergeist won’t be coming. I have a feeling we may have two or three IPs. And the rest be all original.
(This is all my guess, not true).

Legacy has already told us that he knows of 4 IPs for this year, plus the possibility of one in the "mystery house".

And I have receipts... so... yeah.

Fun fact: On this day last year, the HHN27 thread was only on page 51. Well done, folks.

That means this year is going to be extra lit.

I can think of several reasons why:

1. The line-up was pretty much known for a while - hence nothing to speculate about.

2. Since this year requires more speculation - it's caused some more discussion; both good and bad.

It didn't help that Universal forgot how to announce things last year

 

[horrornights789]

Idk why but the more I think about a Happy Death Day maze the more I feel like it’ll be a Scream/Exorcist Maze combined. I think I might actually be excited for it now

 

[horrornights789]

*double post*

Trick ‘r Treat has officially been announced and will be a shared property. IM SO EXCITED FOR THIS HOUSE

Where?

 

[ThemeParks4Life]

I'd be down for a Happy Death Day house. Repetition won't be an issue unless the scareactor positions aren't effective.

What about A Quiet Place?

Give it another year. Nobody saw the movie being as big as it was.

 

[horrornights789]

Where?

The video is in the Hollywood thread

 

[HHNManics]

Where?

It says at the end Orlando and Hollywood.

 

[snayberry]

There it is, who in here said it wasn't coming? O:

I'm going to have to watch the movie again.

I’m wondering how much they’ll be able to reuse from the zone since the house will have to a lot more scenery

 

[happy bunny rabbit]

Where did this video come from again? And yay, we're back to the clip-show trailers of last year. :thud:

Should be a good house, though.
