Jason Blum Talks Possible INSIDIOUS/SINISTER Crossover

Let’s face it, Blumhouse has been at the forefront of horror films for the last decade or so and it doesn’t seem like it’s going to be stopping anytime soon. With franchises like ‘THE CONJURING’, INSIDIOUS, and SINISTER, we can expect more original films from Blumhouse than ever before. Fans have wondered for some time if some of these franchises intertwine or live in the same universe as the others. Well, the man behind it all, Jason Blum, recently talked with Comicbook.com about just that.

The challenge, Blum explained, was finding a story that made the crossover worth doing.

"I think it would be fun to do, but we have to find the right story," Blum said. "We developed it for a while, like you said, you're right, we did develop it for a while, but we could never come up with a great movie. And I didn't want to make a movie just for the sake of combining the two franchises. I wanted to make a movie that was really good. We never came up with a great idea, but I'm open."

Insidious, which has spawned three other films in its series, centers on a couple whose son slips into what seems like a coma -- but is in fact a kind of astral projection, making him a conduit for demonic activity and essentially allowing him to become possessed. Sinister follows a struggling true-crime writer, who finds a number of especially violent and gruesome snuff films, and finds himself pulled into supernatural intrigue, desperately trying to keep his family safely out of it.

Could these two intertwine to make a truly terrifying flick? We think so but it’s up to Blum and his team to hash it all out. Hopefully we get something in the near future.
