Scary Land of Oz

Image New Line Cinema has decided to go to Oz, but it will not be as magical as in the works of Lyman Frank Baum. According to the website The Hollywood Reporter , the studio has acquired a screenplay application from aspiring author Mike Van Wees for a horror movie set in the magical world of Oz.

The plot of the future project is still kept secret, but it is known that it will be directly related to the work of Baum "The Amazing Wizard of Oz" . The book, published back in 1900, has been adapted many times for film, television and theater. So, the story of Dorothy and her dog, carried away by a hurricane to a magical land, gained even more popularity after the release of the film "The Wizard of Oz" in 1939.

Already in this century, Sam Raimi presented his version of the immortal work - in 2013, the film "Oz: The Great and Terrible" opened in cinemas, but it received mixed reviews. And not so long ago, the next version of the story was presented to the audience by the NBC channel, releasing the series "Emerald City", which tells about the already matured Dorothy .
