THE
EYE
FRIDAY
27
OCTOBER
-
10.15pm
(R20)
The
wave
of
great
Eastern
Horrors
being
re-made
by
the
West
doesn't
seem
to
be
letting
up.
One
such
title
soon
getting
the
Hollywood
make-over
is
the
Pang
Brothers'
amazingly
creepy
and
classy
movie
THE
EYE.
A
young
woman
is
liberated
from
eternal
darkness
after
a
transplant
restores
her
sight.
Slowly
her
recovered
sight
starts
to
reveal
more
than
just
the
physical
world
as
disturbing
visions
infiltrate
her
existence.
As
with
most
of
the
movies
on
the
Horror
Fest
schedule,
this
is
a
very
rare
chance
for
you
to
catch
this
cool
movie
in
the
theatre,
so
don't
miss
it.

lucky
viewer
will
get
a

Castle

DEEP
RED
SATURDAY

This
is
quite
the
fan
favourite

bloody
DEEP
RED
sees
a
British
jazz
pianist
in
Rome
embroiled
in
a
dangerous
mystery
after
witnessing
a
brutal
murder.
With
a
bit
of
Hitchcock
"self-investigation"
and
a
nice
twist,
the
brutal
murderer
closes
in
as
the
corpses
pile
up
in
various
innovative
(and
messy)
ways.
