Lionsgate has just acquired the rights to my new top "must-see horror flick". Sorry, IT. But the new movie from James Wan's imagination just sounds like a horror movie lover's dream come true.

The film is called SMART HOUSE. It is based on an original idea from director James Wan.

SMART HOUSE synopsis:

Set in a world of smart phones and smart cars, and a family in the witness protection program placed in the custody of a state of the art, autonomous 'smart house.' When a group of assassins locates the family, the smart house goes into a lethal defense mode."

Badass, right? But get this: the film is set to be directed by Alexandre Aja!

Yes, the director of HIGH TENSION, THE HILLS HAVE EYES (2004), and PIRANHA 3D is joining forces with the director of SAW, INSIDIOUS, and THE CONJURING! If that list doesn't contain some of the best genre flicks from the last 20 years, I dare you to find a team-up that does.

SMART HOUSE does not have a release date or cast yet, but we will make sure to keep you guys up to date on all further news concerning this potentially awesome movie!
