A director is being sought to helm a redux of Wes Craven's depraved early '70s classic Last House on the Left reports Dread Central. Craven is currently overseeing Alexandre Aja's efforts to remake Craven's "The Hills Have Eyes" so its no surprise that he's doing the same for another of his pre-"Nightmare" flicks.
Penned by screenwriter Mark Haslett for New Line Cinema, the log line for Haslett's approach sticks close with the source material focusing on two young girls who venture in to the big city and are kidnapped by some deranged individuals. Their family then seeks revenge in, according to our source, a "haunted house."
Haslett was part of the development staff behind "Freddy vs. Jason" and "Jason X". Its unlikely film that will vaguely resemble the raw power of the 1972 original which caused it to be either banned or severely restricted in several countries.
Thanks to 'Johnny'.
