20 Upcoming Horror Movies That Might Surprise You
6. Under Paris 2
Netflix's recent shark film Under Paris wasn't great, but it did at least end with one hell of a tantalising tease for a sequel, which will seemingly take place in a flooded Paris overrun with killer sharks.
And while most assumed that journeyman director Xavier Gens would return for Under Paris 2, it was recently confirmed that he has been replaced by Alexandre Aja.
Impolite though it might be to call this a major directing upgrade, Aja has proven himself an extremely adept genre craftsman in the past, having delivered one of the best creature features of the last 20 years with 2010's ludicrously entertaining Piranha 3D, and more recently he did a great job helming 2019's alligator thriller Crawl.
Don't be too surprised, then, if Under Paris 2 is a rare horror sequel that effortlessly outdoes the original - in addition to its wilder concept, it's got a director who acutely understands how to deliver over-the-top, gore-soaked carnage. Let's go.
