The Town That Dreaded Sundown is an upcoming 2014 American horror film remake of the 1976 film of the same name. It was
made low-budget to keep the same cinéma vérité as Charles B. Pierce's film. The film is produced by Ryan Murphy of Ryan
Murphy Productions (Glee, Nip/Tuck, American Horror Story) and Jason Blum of Blumhouse Productions (Paranormal Activity,
Insidious) for Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer. The film is directed by Alfonso Gomez-Rejon in his feature-length directorial debut,
and is written by Roberto Aguirre-Sacasa. This is one of the last films of Ed Lauter before his death on October 16,
2013.
After 65 years since the Phantom Killer terrorized the town of Texarkana, the "Moonlight Murders" begin again. Is it the
same unidentified killer who was never caught, or is it a copycat? Can a high-school girl with dark secrets of her own
solve the mystery?
