Comic-Con 2012: Creepy Anthology Horror Film Led By Chris Columbus

Chris Columbus’ 1492 production outfit is spearheading the effort with Submarine and New Comic Company.  Columbus will also write and produce a segment of the four-part anthology.

Anthology horror films have not been popular in Hollywood.  You can just look to the release debacle Michael Dougherty’s Trick ‘r Treat had a few years ago as proof of that.  While the film was embraced by genre audiences, it was completely dumped by its distributor, Warner Bros., after sitting on the shelf.

Columbus – who gave us films like Home Alone and two installments in the Harry Potter franchise – is also producing Adam Green’s upcoming film Killer Pizza.
