"The Eye"

[gnosis]

I've gone on about it before, but this deserves a note.

Simply, it's the BEST ghost movie EVER made!

The Pang Brothers created probably THE most realistic ghost images for cinema, EVER!

Over 2 years ago, I heard through the biz that one of the Tom's (Hanks or Cruise, not sure which) got the rights to shoot the script in English for the Western audience.

Well, at least 1.5 years ago it ended up on our union "Rumour Mill" list that it was going to shoot here, in Van.

I was _stoked_, being such a huge fan of the original. I was going to actually _try_ to get on that show.

But, it went away.

Never heard anything more about it...till this week.

It's scheduled to come to Van for 3 days of additional photography.

That means the show's been shot, and mostly cut. Additional photography usually happens near the end of the editing process, when they can look at rough mixes and decide if they need to add anything to smooth it out.

So, my friends, this is the tip I'm sending to y'all:

Go watch the original before the re-make gets released!!!

I mean, you just KNOW they're going to muff it.

Western cinema RARELY gets it right when re-doing excellent int'l hits.

It should be easy to find in your video store in the int'l section. It's Chinese w/ subtitles. But, so worthy to check out.
