A24’s Heretic Reunites The Boogeyman’s Sophie Thatcher and Scott Beck
A Quiet Place’s Screenwriter Adapted The Stephen King Story in 2023
However , Grant is n’t the only exciting addition toHeretic ’s stamp . Hereticreunites the star and screenwriter of 2023 ’s underrated Stephen King adaptationThe Boogeymanwith Scott Beck penning the movie ’s screenplay and Sophie Thatcher playing one of its heroine . ThatcherplayedThe Boogeyman ’s heroine Sadiein the intense horror drama , which earned a solid $ 82 million upon its 2023 release . While it was n’t as in effect as Beck ’s early collaborationism with co - writer Bryan Woods , 2018 ’s acclaimed blockbusterA Quiet Place , The Boogeymandid balance its explicit horror elements with a poignant depiction of a mob coping with grief .
Stephen King ’s origin story follows a troubled patient who recounts his encounters with the booger to his therapist , and the brief , grim story includes a classic twist conclusion . In contrast , 2023’sThe Boogeyman is surprisingly sad , concentre on a family who are charge apart by the loss of their female parent before the eponymic teras even rears its heading . The Boogeyman ’s family dramatic event offered Thatcher a opportunity to strike as a dramatic performing artist , but its horror elements were pretty sidelined in the process . In demarcation , Heretic ’s self - contained fib has the potential to be a more intense , traditional repugnance thrill drive .

A24’s New Horror Promises Beck’s Signature Intensity
LikeA Quiet Placeor Beck and Woods ’ later 2019 horror movieHaunt , A24 ’s approaching spiritual horrorHereticis a full - blown pursuit movie . WhereThe Boogeyman was a more meditative horror story , Hereticpromises perpetual tension and scares thanks to its limited locations and compressed time frame . Heretic ’s trailer advertize something close in tone toGreen RoomorCreepthan Thatcher ’s earlier collaboration with Woods . This is great news as it intend thatHereticcan allow A24 to offer a more intense , pulse - beat brand of horror when the psychological thriller arrives subsequently in 2024 .
