Jeffrey Reddick (Day of the Dead remake) is on scripting duties with some pretty solid ideas to move the story forward. ”The story will pick up where the first movie left off,” Jones tells the mag. ”We will be bringing back Nell [played in the original by Angela Bettis, pictured] and her husband, plus a few other characters. The story will continue to take place in Hollywood. This time you will see more of the killer; there will be more murders and more of a backstory about where he’s from and how he came to be.”
Maybe they’ll try and explain the strange supernatural element that was barely touched on in Hooper’s film? Here’s hoping. If all goes well, you can expect to hear more Toolbox Murders 2 news soon!
