The Apparition is apparently (*yawn*) based on true events, and revolves around “a young couple haunted by a supernatural presence unleashed during a college experiment.” Ooh. The Stanford Prison Experiment with a supernatural twist?
Production will start in early February with writer/director Todd Lincoln at the helm. He’s pretty much a newbie, only having done effects work for Robert Rodriguez’s From Dusk Till Dawn way back in the day.The horror/sci-fi genre is a battlefield for up-and-coming directors like Lincoln and others, some of whom survive and go on to much bigger and brighter pastures (Eli Roth, for example) while others simply go back to the effects houses they were a part of before.What do you think of The Apparition?
