Seth Rogen says Curry Barker’s next film, *Anything but Ghosts*, is even better than *Obsession*, Barker’s recent horror success. His praise has drawn attention to the upcoming horror-comedy and adds to interest in Barker’s next step as a filmmaker.
The film, due for release on 7 May 2027, follows two fake paranormal investigators whose business encounters genuine supernatural events. Barker directs and co-stars with Cooper Tomlinson, his longtime collaborator and the film’s co-writer; Tomlinson likened its premise to “if Key and Peele walked into Hereditary”.
