(psst your spoiler code got messed up.

fixed.

 

[Guygas]

Everything they've shown off for this year has been REALLY solid, im actually super hyped for this year.

 

[rageofthegods]

I'm just pumped that we got an actual WB property confirmed for this year. Bodes well for the future, methinks.

 

[GhostHost85]

I am definitely glad that Creepshow is going to have some stories from the original movie in it. This year continues to seem like it will be great. My current anticipation rankings for the announced mazes are:

1. Killer Klowns from Outer Space
2. Creepshow
3. Frankenstein Meets the Wolf Man
4. Holidayz in Hell
5. Ghostbusters
6. Stranger Things

The lineup this year already has a lot of variety.

 

[rageofthegods]

One more very interesting thing:

I was wondering why "Grey Matter" sounded familiar, so I looked it up and sure enough, it's actually an adaptation of a story from Stephen King's Night Shift! So that means that, in the same year, we got a WB property and a direct Stephen King adaptation!

That really bodes well for the future!

"The Crate" story from the original is also a King story. So we have TWO direct Stephen King adaptions.

Haha, I totally forgot about that! Though I don't think it was republished in print like "Grey Matter" was?

I wonder if they're lining Creepshow up as potential multi-year property. It's certainly got more than enough material to fluff out another maze if they keep up the "OG Movies - Shudder Series" dynamic. They could try to adapt the two remaining Creepshow sections ("Something to Tide you over" and "The Lonesome Death of Jordy Verrill") and fill them up with some of the other TV series episodes like "Survivor Type" (based on another King short from Skeleton Crew!) or maybe they could adapt some episodes from the second movie, like "The Raft" or "The Hitchhiker”

They could also totally bring the entire OG movie next year to Orlando if it's a hit this year.

 

[hhnlover]

Is hhn gonna have a panel at Scarela?

 

[rageofthegods]

Is hhn gonna have a panel at Scarela?

It doesn't look like there is a ScareLA this year? IDK, the Facebook is active, but no tickets or dates announced, and it's supposed to be in August each year.

 

[horrornights789]

So now that that’s been announced can we please get Suspiria next year? Neon houses are my new favorite thing that can happen.

Anyways, no wonder we couldn’t figure out which version it was lmao; pleasantly surprised by the announcement and it’s not my least anticipated anymore. Guessing House of 1000 Corpses is up next and then Us after that.

 

[Jaden]

Well for my most to least anticipated lineup as if right now:
- Ghostbusters
- Creepshow
- Frankenstien Meets The Wolfman
- Killer Klowns From Outer Space
- Stranger Things
- Holidays In Hell
- House Of 1000 Corpses
- Pandoras Box
- Us

Looking pretty good. Also betting HOTC is next for announcement.

 

[horrornights789]

Might be too early for anticipation lists but for now:

- Us
- Stranger Things 2 + 3
- House of 1000 Corpses
- Ghostbusters
- Holidayz in Hell
- Creepshow
- Killer Klowns from Outer Space
- Pandora’s Box
- Frankenstein Meets the Wolfman

All in all I’m pretty excited! It’s weird to me how Metallica changing to Us made me change my whole perspective on the lineup.

 

[Dr. Herbert West]

Alright, since it's the thing to do, I'm busting out my anticipation list too:

(Most to least anticipated)
Creepshow
Ghostbusters
Killer Klowns
Frankenstein Meets the Wolf Man
Holidayz in Hell
Us
Pandora's Box
House of a Thousand Corpses
Stranger Things

 

[torr4nce]

Jumping on the bandwagon, from most to least anticipated:

(I'm excited for all of them, really)

Ghostbusters
Creepshow
Holidayz in Hell
Killer Klowns from Outer Space
Stranger Things
Us
Frankenstein Meets the Wolfman
Pandora's Box (need to know more about it)
House of 1000 Corpses

Creepshow started toward the bottom of my list but quickly shot up after hearing everything from today. I can't wait to see the comic book look come to life. With that said, I'm pretty squeamish when it comes to roaches so this is really going to be the first maze that worries me on an emotional level. It's all part of the experience, I guess.

 

[TheGamerOfKnowledge]

Here’s my ranking.(most to least)
House of 1000 Corpses
Ghostbusters
Killer Klowns From Outer Space
Creepshow
Holidayz In Hell
Stranger Things
Frankenstein meets the wolf man
Us

I left out Pandora’s Box because I want to know more about it first.

 

[viking_wizard_eyes]

Not sure if this will be my final list because idk, maybe there will be some stuff in the official announcements that change my level of interest, but on existing speculation:

1. Us
2. Creepshow
3. Stranger Things
4. UCM
5. Killer Klownz
6. Ghostbusters
7. HO1C
8. Holidayz
9. Pandora’s Box

 

[darkshadow237]

What about the other AMC series nos4a2 as a maze?

 

[rageofthegods]

What about the other AMC series nos4a2 as a maze?

It's doing decently ratings wise, and I do like Zachary Quinto. Still, it looks like it's not that well-received?
