 Annabelle
Comes Home is now out on home video and the film’s writer and director Gary
Dauberman talked with ComicBookMovie about the film when the topic and the
now-cancelled DC Universe TV series Swamp Thing. The show was produced by Mark
Verheiden, James Wan and Dauberman. It did get good reviews but during
production the planned ongoing series became a one in done and production
scrambled to come up with a series ending. There is an online campaign to save
the series but that’s not going to happen. Dauberman did tease what the plan was
for a second season which would have gone stranger and more standalone: “Season
one is very much like a movie in that it has a beginning, middle, and end, and
is one story told over the course of ten episodes and what I liked a lot about
the comics is that there’s like werewolf in a hospital and things like that, so
we would have had episodes like an anthology with standalone stories. The swamp
is very much the kitchen sink of supernatural terror and, as you know, you can
go into different subgenres of horror with that and I was really looking forward
to exploring that in season two and getting into some of the more twisted horror
tales from the later comics. It just would have got weirder. For people who
don’t know the character, season one was telling people what Swamp-Thing was all
about but season two was going to be more about getting into the deeper,
twisted, weirder, and gross ideas.”
