Upcoming James Wan Horror Film M3GAN Already Talks of Sequel
Universal Pictures welcomed the idea of James Wan for this modern take of “dolls go slicey slicey”. Unlike horror movies with dolls, M3GAN is an advanced doll model with artificial intelligence. She is built to be a companion, a teacher, a best friend. However, M3GAN has one goal:
To protect Katie (her owner) from harm. Both physical and emotional.
As an AI, M3GAN follows this absolutely. To a degree of logic only M3GAN calculates to be perfect. Aside from being there for Katie, they play, they dance and Katie becomes emotionally attached. M3GAN became overly protective.
Weeks ago, the official trailer called attention of generations of horror fans. M3GAN is the new Chucky in some comments. There are those that commented the movie to be a modern “Child’s Play”. What’s even more intriguing is that due to the technological nature of M3GAN, people say the events in the movie may be more close to reality than we think.
Atomic Monster, Blumhouse Productions and Divide/Conquer brings this movie to theaters. Many are now looking forward to seeing M3GAN.
