The Eye (2002) 8/10

Starring : Anjelica Lee, Lawrence Chou, Candy Lo, Edmund Chen
Director : Oxide & Danny Pang
Running Time : 95 mins

A young blind musician called Wun (Lee) undergoes groundbreaking surgery to regain her eyesight, but soon starts to see things that she shouldn’t. Realising that she is seeing ghost images, she decides to find out as much as she can about the donor of her new eyes and find out why she is now able to see into the spirit world.

This was another interesting horror offering from the far east, and I was surprised that the remake is so similar, what with Hollywood trying to butcher everything they can get their hands on. The pacing is slow, but not so slow that the viewer will get easily bored, and any fans of Asian horror will lap this up.
