Judd Apatow Horror Film?

Apparently Judd Apatow wants to add horror to his huge growing comedy legacy with Bill Hader writing the script. 

What would an Apatow-produced slasher film from Rich and Hader be like? Says Bill: ‘It’s partially Straw Dogsmeets Halloween meets Home Alone meets Monster Squad.’ It’s hard to argue against that.

‘I don’t know if it’s even going to get made,’ Hader told me. ’Judd met with us and said “I want to do a horror movie with you. I want to see you in a slasher movie.”‘

The film will be a horror comedy, and while Hader danced around giving away too much, he did describe it to me like this: ‘It is definitely about guys nowadays, that idea that you watch fucked up shit on TV, how violence in our culture – this sounds really hoity toity – you watch fucked up reality shows, I love true crime shows. The idea of that thing coming to your house, and what do you do? I would shit my pants. That’s basically what the movie is about. What if that guy decided to come to your house? What would you and your dipshit friends do about it?

With the comedy factor mixed in, an Apatow slasher flick could be pretty different, but will it be scary? Doubtful.
