Yesternight, my siblings and I watched the Jessica Alba version of The Eye, and although she looked smoking hot in that movie( though not as sexy as in Sin City), this American version is definitely no where near as good as the original Asian flick. Disappointed in the lack of scare from the aforementioned movie, my scare cravings were still not satisfied, and I hungered for more! So I decided to look into a movie I've been hearing about for a while, but never had the chance to watch; A Tale of Two Sister or in its original Korean title, Janghwa, Hongryeon.
Creepy right? Fortunately, I found the movie on youtube and was able to watch it. This movie is GOOD. It's definitely not your typical Asian horror flick, it's got some major psychological themes that really keep you guessing. The cinematography is absolutely beautiful. It's got a very artistic style to it, which is what I love most about foreign films. The soundtrack fits in perfectly and the plot is captivating and incredibly complex. It has some spooky scenes, but not done over-the-top to the point where it's laughable which is the case in most asian horror flicks. So if you're looking for a good psychological thriller with a couple of paranormal scares?WATCH THIS! Phenomenal actors, btw. Oh, just a little warning, it can get really confusing.
I'm working on a script. I have been for a while now, and it initially was a book written in first-person, but I had always pictured it to be a movie, so I decided to write a script instead. I don't really know where the idea came from, I guess it was inspired by all these Indie flicks I watched in the past and a combination of my own life. Its original title was Cigarette Smoke but I thought up something else and decided to change it. Well, I kind of like Cigarette Smoke... The Arctic Monkeys actually have a song called "Cigarette Smoke." fun stuff
