The tagline for which is "unsettle yourself in".

For Stephen Herman, things just keep getting better. He recently sold a horror spec script to Lionsgate called ‘The Culling’, which follows a priest battling a demon while hiding out in a remote cabin. David F. Sandberg, the director of Lights Out, Anabelle: Creation, and Shazam, is at the helm. David and Lotta Losten will produce and Lionsgate will distribute. 

David F. Sandberg said: “Love this script by Stephen Herman and its take on how demons work.”  

A date for production has not been announced yet, but a release date is set for 2022.
