Any fans of the LAST HOUSE ON THE LEFT remake? This may be of interest to you…

The L.A. Times has it that LAST HOUSE director Dennis Iliadis (seen right) is teaming with “Ghost Whisperer” scribe Teddy Tenenbaum to make DEMONOLOGISTS, a supernatural thriller about a ghost hunting team that gets in over its head. This will mark the third feature for Iliadis, behind HARDCORE (2004) and the aforementioned Wes Craven retool. Word is he’s also being considered for the oft-rumored THE BIRDS remake.

According to the Times:

DEMONOLOGISTS, from “Sherlock Holmes” producer Silver Pictures, concerns a family of veteran ghost hunters who get more than they bargained for when they are called in to face what they soon realize is not a routine ghost job but a demon infestation. The film shares some thematic similarities with “House,” which looked at what happens when a decent family is driven to violent acts.

Sounds good on paper…hopefully it’ll be more of a POLTERGEIST than PARANORMAL ACTIVITY. Now what I’m sayin’?!?
