Last Updated on July 22, 2021

Unbroken Pictures has a nice slate of upcoming horror treats for us, including THE STRANGERS director Bryan Bertino's THERE ARE MONSTERS, the supernatural horror movie FEBRUARY with Kiernan Shipka and Emma Roberts attached, and supernatural thriller STEPHANIE from director Akiva Goldsman. Now Variety is reporting that Screen Gems has bought Mike Scannell’s horror-thriller SCARECROW with horror specialist Unbroken Pictures producing.

Scannell’s spec script, set at a remote lake house, revolves around…

…a mother and her two young daughters who must fight for survival after falling into a terrifying and bizarre nightmare conceived by a psychopath.

Bertino and Adrienne Biddle are producing through their Unbroken Pictures banner. Screen Gems President Clint Culpepper and Scott Strauss will oversee “Scarecrow” for the company.

Bertino also wrote and directed MOCKINGBIRD, which he also produced with Biddle. That title will be released October 6 through Blumhouse’s newly launched BH Tilt label.
