Much as many movies earmark themselves as certified masterpieces or guaranteed disasters long before audiences actually watch them, sometimes it’s just impossible to get a full bead on how a film’s going to turn out.
Sometimes, there’s such a confusing assembly of green and red flags surrounding a production that it feels like there’s a 50:50 chance of it being worthwhile or not. And the horror genre has always been a tricky beast in this regard. Countless horror pictures have suffered through woeful productions to deliver unexpectedly entertaining results, while elsewhere, a poor end product can been disguised in trailers by focusing on gory kills.
Where the following ten upcoming horror flicks are concerned, it truly feels like things could go either way. On one hand, there are clearly some intriguing ideas and visuals worth considering – not to ignore the talented cast and crew involved – but there are also some nagging elements worth keeping in mind.
Ultimately, none of us will know for sure until we sit down and watch them for ourselves, but for now, these films exist in a limbo of possibility where they can still be incredible or downright awful.
The Woman in the Yard is the new Blumhouse-produced horror film starring Danielle Deadwyler as Ramona, who discovers a mysterious woman in black appearing in front of her home.
The title character certainly strikes a haunting, elemental image, and there’s no doubt that the ever-reliable Deadwyler is going to put on an acting clinic, but pretty much everything else is at the mercy of a coin flip. Basically, is this gonna be the good kind of Get Out-style Blumhouse production, or the Night Swim/Imaginary/Truth or Dare-style Blumhouse movie?
Director Jaume Collet-Serra’s filmography is all over the place, from the solid likes of Orphan, The Shallows and the recent Carry-On to the less-stellar House of Wax and Black Adam. Meanwhile, the script is the first major writing credit for Sam Stefanak, so that doesn’t provide us with any more insight into the film’s potential quality.
At least with a tight 88-minute runtime, The Woman in the Yard seems unlikely to outstay its welcome either way.
