SciFi Wire chatted with Wes Craven recently about the next project on his slate – another partnership with Alexandre Aja. Titled THE WAITING, Craven is producing with Aja set to helm. Here’s what good ‘ole Wes shared on the concept:
“It’s [about] a woman who loses her child in a terrible accident in New York. She’s married. She’s not able to recover from it. And her husband convinces her to move out of the city and they buy a beautiful house in a lovely area of Connecticut, and very soon after they’re in there, a toy of her child that she keeps with her is moved, and she becomes completely convinced that her child is coming back and talking to her. And her husband feels like, ‘Now she’s going around the bend and becoming really crazy.’ And there’s a point where you realize it’s not the ghost of her child, but another child. It’s an interesting kind of story.”
Pretty f*cking creepy if you ask me. You can click here to catch the rest of what Craven has to say, and also get some input from Aja on the project.
