Well, Its from the director of House on the Haunted Hill and the Creature. I thought both were ok horror films, first half of the House was excellent ans scary, but then it all went down hill.
As for Fear.Com, it looks interesting and creepy. It got simular idea to Japanese film The Ring, only here its a website, that if you visit it, you will die.
i'm definitely going to go and see it that friday. like despair mentioned, the whole idea reeks of the Ring. switch a tape for a site and bada bing, you've got your movie. i'm really interested to see the similarities between the two, if any at all.
and the site isn't all that great. had it been more like what the movie is about (a porno site) then it would have been cool. the site (see sig) for the american remake of the Ring (oct. 18th) has it beat there.
It might be good. I saw the preview in Fangoria also. And so far the Ring remake looks alright but WHY does it need to be made? The original is only 5 years old. Just release the original. I had the same feeling about Vanilla Sky. Open Your Eyes is a better movie in my opinion and I just don't see the need to remake it when the original is so good and is also less than 6 years old.
Anyway...for all the people who saw the last fangoria did you see the preview for $la$her$? It sounds interesting but hopefully it won't be too schlocky cause the budget was less than shoestring. I like what the director said about it being a better concept than The Running Man because people were willing to risk their lives and willfully get on the show unlike in The Running Man where people were forcefully put in the show. Also the latest Hellraiser movie is sounding really good and so is the new director. It will definately surpass the last two Hellraisers and possibly the first or second.
