Production has wrapped on The Strangers 2, the long gestating sequel to Bryan Bertino’s terrifying 2008 home invasion classic. Johannes Roberts (47 Meters Down) is now at the helm with a script penned by Bertino and Ben Ketai (30 Days of Night: Dark Days).

Roberts tells Crave:

I love the first one. I think it’s a super cool movie,” he said. “It’s really smartly put together and I think [Bertino] did a really good job of creating a really oddly paced movie. In a good way.

You know, people have played with the whole mask thing since then… they haven’t really done that sort of pacing, and set it in a drama, or the feel the first one had.

So it’s a great opportunity to try something a little different, for me. There’s a real grounded drama. You really buy into this family and the journey they’re going through before everything goes horribly wrong.

Christina Hendricks (“Mad Men”) stars as the immensely busty matriarch of a family stranded at an abandoned trailer park and tormented by masked killers – Pin-up Girl (Lea Enslin), Dollface (Emma Bellomy), Man in the Mask (Damian Maffei) –  during an ill fated road trip.

Lewis Pullman (Aftermath) plays Hendricks’ husband and Bailee Madison (”Trophy Wife”) is their flat chested daughter. The film is slated for a 2018 release.
