Damien Chazelle to Script 'Last Exorcism' Sequel
Source: THR
As yet another example of why you shouldn't ever title your projects with any kind of definite statement like "last" or "final", Studio Canal has hired scribe Damien Chazelle to pen a sequel to last year's surprise hit 'The Last Exorcism'. With any luck, they'll call it something equally entertaining like 'The Last LAST Exorcism... Really' or 'The Next-to-Last Exorcism' (I'm looking at you "Final" Destination...).
The original film was directed by Daniel Stamm and starred Patrick Fabian as an Evangelical preacher who takes a documentary film crew with him to his last exorcism to expose the whole process as a fraud once and for all. However, things don't work out quite the way he'd hoped in the "found footage" horror film. The decision to make a second installment had to be a no-brainer for the studio - shot for a remarkably tiny 1.6 million dollars, the film grossed nearly $63 million dollars worldwide. With that kind of profit margin, you'd have to literally hate money to not make a sequel (or possibly be named Brewster).
Chazelle - a relative newcomer - has only written one produced film (2009's indie 'Guy and Madeleine on a Park Bench'), but his first spec script 'The Claim' was featured in Hollywood's 2010 Black List (an annual list of hot, yet un-produced scripts) and he has several other scripts in various stages of development across the industry.

With a WTF ending like the first film I'm surprised that a sequel's been given the idea....T.T

What? A horror sequel to a sequel that was to be the last of the countless sequels?
What's the world coming to...

I really loved the original film, I know a lot of people just liked it. I mean, damn, I loved it. I just really hope they don't mess it up with the sequel. And if they do...DAMN YOU HOLLYWOOD! I'm just hoping that they take a horror movie that everyone though would be average when it came out, were blown away, and then made a great sequel, like Dawn of the Dead, and not ruin something people love, like Blair Witch 2. End rant.

As long as they start it with "Mama Said Knock You Out" Dont call it a comeback I've been exorcising bitches for years, Just like Bachman's man, I turn steers into queers.

I liked it even though it was a bit predictable
At the end the fucking priest or her brother had fucked her and it turned out that she did have a fucking demon in her and then the pastor went head to head with the demon
I liked it I thought it was great and hope the next one will be just as good or better

I wasn't too crazy with the Last Exorcism because the mystery of the found footage was never fully answered nor did it line up propery with the beginning of the story. The ending was Blair Witch-esque and that's not atrocious but they could have done more with such a fun premise.
