Slasher Sequel ‘In a Violent Nature 2’ Heads to Summer Camp! [First Look]
IFC and Shudder’s slasher smash hit In a Violent Nature is getting a sequel, and this time Johnny is heading to summer camp!
In the sequel, Ry Barrett returns as Johnny, a vengeful, undead killer who embarks on a bloody rampage after a group of teens steals a golden locket that awakens his spirit.
In a Violent Nature 2 sends Johnny to a summer camp, where he crosses paths with a young, outcast camper who is forced to spend the night with his counselor sister and her friends at their annual end-of-season party.
Lucas Nguyen, Olivia Scriven, Laurie Babin, Fionn Laird, Donald MacLean Jr. and Evan Marsh complete the cast.
In a Violent Nature 2 started shooting in Canada in September and is now in post.
The film is written by Chris Nash. Producers are Peter Kuplowsky, Shannon Hanmer, with Nash and Michael James Regan, alongside co-producer Liane Cunje.
Variety reports that Paris-based international sales banner Charades has boarded the sequel to the 2024 horror hit and is getting ready to give it a big market push at the EFM in Berlin.
“In a Violent Nature 2 is a first feature, driven by a new vision, with more kills, more blood, hopefully even more iconic,” said Charades’ co-founders Carole Baraton, Pierre Mazars and Yohann Comte.
Kuplowsky adds that “with this sequel, fans can expect an exponential increase of the ol’ ultraviolence with a distinct hook, but one that still collides with storied slasher traditions.”
The first film, In a Violent Nature, had its world premiere at the Sundance Film Festival in 2024 and quickly became a cult slasher after being released theatrically by Independent Film Company and Shudder.
