My writing partner and I still have several horror script in the works, so there will be horror films coming from us in the future, but we recently hooked up with an A-list director who has optioned our first non-horror script and he wants more of the same from us.
For the first time, we are actually getting paid money we might be able to live off of. I can't really get into any of the projects, but you can be certain that the blood will spill and violence level will be high.
The Director is not exactly happy about his dealings with Hollywood studios (sounds like a certain other director I've worked with lately) and he wants to start developing his own stories with writers he can trust and he has branded us "his guys" and we couldn't be happier.
Best of all he wants the next thing we work on for him to be tonally inspired by THE WILD BUNCH. He loves Peckinpah and wants to make movies with that same tough-guy aesthetic.
We will always come back to the horror genre, but it could be a while.
