This May IFC Midnight Will Unleash ‘The Wretched’

This May, IFC Midnight will unleash The Wretched, from Brett Pierce and Drew Pierce, the writing-directing team behind the zombie cult hit Deadheads. Starring John-Paul Howard (Hell or High Water) and Piper Curda (I Didn’t Do It), the film centers on a rebellious teenage boy, Ben, who is sent to live with his father for the summer and work at the local marina in order to gain some form of discipline. The idyllic tourist town offers little solace for him, however, as he is forced to deal with the local, privileged teens and his father’s new girlfriend. Ben’s problems grow increasingly disturbing when he makes a chilling discovery about the family renting the house next door when a malevolent spirit from the woods takes ahold of the parents and starts playing a sinister game of house, preying upon the children.” Jamison Jones, Zarah Mahler, Kevin Bigley, and Blane Crockarell also star.

The sequel is scripted by “Workaholics” writer-producer Jen D’Angelo, Variety reports. Hocus Pocus 2 will follow Shankman’s Disenchanted, the sequel to Enchanted, which is currently in pre-production. So while there is no word on when Hocus Pocus 2 will begin production. At the moment none of the Hocus Pocus cast members are attached, but Disney has high hopes that they will be involved in part 2. The original film, directed by Kenny Ortega, followed three sister witches (Bette Midler, Sarah Jessica Parker, and Kathy Najimy) who cast a spell in 1693 and are awakened by a teen boy in the 20th century. He, his sister and a friend fight to survive Halloween and save the town with the help of a talking cat.

High school becomes literal hell for a group of young women who tap into witchcraft in order to fulfill their every wish in The Witch Files. “While spending a dull detention together, an unlikely gathering of teenage girls discovers one of their group may possess supernatural powers.
