James Wan Magnifies Your Fear of the Dark in "Lights Out"

From torches and candles to LEDs. Street lamps, headlights, neon, flares. Since the origin of our existence, humans have sought ways to escape the encroaching shadows and the frightful things they conceal.

“We’re all terrified of the dark,” offers “Lights Out” producer James Wan, master of the horror and thriller genres. “As kids, we were convinced something was hiding in the closet or under the bed, and that stays with us. It’s universal. This movie really plays on that simple concept, and that’s the brilliance and the fun of it.”

REEL DEAL: “INSIDIOUS” Co-Creator Now Directs “CHAPTER 3”

After penning the scripts for “Insidious” and “Insidious: Chapter 2,” Leigh Whannell takes the reins on “Insidious: Chapter 3” by stepping in for co-creator James Wan and directing the new film.

Producer Oren Peli says, “Leigh understands the world of Insidious so well and also sees all sorts of possibilities for `The Further' and for the characters grappling with it, all of which made him the perfect choice to direct the new chapter.

Producer Jason Blum elaborates, “The people who created a movie make the best sequels – which I don’t talk about with them until after they’ve made the first movie, so that it isn’t compromised – and carry the storytelling forward. When Leigh said, ‘I have an idea for a new movie,’ that was ideal. We wanted to make it as comfortable as possible for Leigh to get to do what he wanted to do in taking the director’s chair, because we all felt he should be the next director for these stories.”
