Sam Raimi is talks to direct a film about the Bermuda Triangle

Sam Raimi, the mind behind basic titles to understand what the new horror cinema is with works like The Evil Dead (1981) or Darkman (1990), is in negociations with Skydance Productions to lead their new Bermuda Triangle project, THR reported. Oz the Great and Powerful (2013) was the last adventure as a feature film director Sam Raimi has been involved in, since latelly he has been more focused in the production of the Ash vs Evil Dead (2015) TV Series.

It is still unknown what final title will the movie have, or any other details about the production, since Skydance is keeping all the information under a strict secrecy. What we do know is that the script has been written by Carlo Bernard and Doug Miro, responsable of the text for The Uninvited (2009) and the TV series Narcos (2015-2018) among others. It is also unknown if the story of this movie will be under the terms of mystery and science fiction, or if it will take a more scary direction so it would mark Sam Raimi’s return in the genre of horror, a genre that gave him the biggest glory and that haven’t been involved since Drag Me to Hell (2009). That is if he is the chosen one to carry on with the project, obviously.

It is assumable that everybody knows about the Bermuda Triangle. Also known as the Devil’s Triangle, is a loosely-defined region in the western part of the North Atlantic Ocean, where a number of aircraft and ships are said to have disappeared under mysterious circumstances. Most reputable sources dismiss the idea that there is any mystery. The vicinity of the Bermuda Triangle is one of the most heavily traveled shipping lanes in the world, with ships frequently crossing through it for ports in the Americas, Europe, and the Caribbean islands. Cruise ships and pleasure craft regularly sail through the region, and commercial and private aircraft routinely fly over it.
Popular culture has attributed various disappearances to the paranormal or activity by extraterrestrial beings. Documented evidence indicates that a significant percentage of the incidents were spurious, inaccurately reported, or embellished by later authors.
