The Eye, Remade (Should Never Have Been)!

Oh, I am a fan of Jessica Alba.

I am also a fan of the original The Eye by the Pang Brothers.

Don't get me wrong. I was really excited about this remake as to how Hollywood would play out an Asian blockbuster. Like how Infernal Affairs was remade into The Departed. That was ok.

You guys read between the lines...

If you wanna sleep, just stay in bed.

The Mist, Not For The Faint of Heart!

Yes, truly!

And because I've seen it. The ending will truly unnerve you.
A night after a storm runs awry as people are stuck inside a supermarket, unable to get out because of a mist settling down on their town.

Pretty B-movie, if you ask me.

But no, thrill after thrill, the movie takes you down farther to an imaginary land of monsters and aliens. It scares you because it truly asks you what are you gonna do in case it happens to you.

Oh yes, there are tentacles, bugs, bats, giants, all of which you haven't before seen in your entire life. And before you know it, you ask yourself this question: do you stay in...out?

A Stephen King thriller, in the tradition of 1408. I dare you to watch it! my stomach hurt bad after watching it. Truly gut-wrenching!
