French director Laurent Briet is close to becoming the director of THE STRANGERS 2, according to Bloody Disgusting. Briet is, naturally, a music video and t.v. commercial helmer, having worked on ads for Calvin Klein, Sprint, and Mercedes-Benz. You know, real horrific stuff.

Apparently, the sequel takes place in a trailer park. I’m going to guess it’s so they have more victims to murder, thus turning it into a standard slasher. Wonder if Rob Zombie was the first choice to direct, he’s usually voted “most likely to have senseless murders occur in a white-trash location”.
