Pretty Little Liars star Lucy Hale had a bad run-in with Ghostface in SCREAM 4 and now she's set to return to horror with TRUTH OR DARE, the latest genre offering from Blumhouse Productions, the company behind such films as GET OUT, SPLIT, INSIDIOUS, PARANORMAL ACTIVITY, SINISTER, THE GIFT, and many more.

Unfortunately, this TRUTH OR DARE has nothing to do with the Elijah Wood favorite from 1986. Hale has signed on to star in the film as 

a college student in Mexico who is conned into playing a supernatural version of Truth or Dare. The game doesn’t stop and follows her back home.

TRUTH OR DARE will be directed by Jeff Wadlow from a screenplay he wrote with Chris Roach and Jillian Jacobs. The trio crafted the story with Michael Reisz.

Blumhouse's Jason Blum and Couper Samuelson will be producing the movie, with Wadlow and Roach serving as executive producers.

Wadlow's previous directing credits include CRY_WOLF, NEVER BACK DOWN, KICK-ASS 2, and TRUE MEMOIRS OF AN INTERNATIONAL ASSASSIN. That list doesn't instill a lot of confidence, but I'm still recovering from the massive disappointment of KICK-ASS 2. Maybe this Blumhouse collaboration will result in something special, even if the idea sounds pretty goofy.
