    Mirrors

    Trailer

    I think Aja has some talent. This is more psychological, which will be nice for a change. Looks good.

    The trailer tried to be so teasing, that you could hardly tell what was going on other than the fact that the mirrors did weird things, and it was freaking them out, rather unconviningly.

    Aja definitely is a talented horror filmmaker though, so I'm intrigued by default.

    After only seeing him in so many seasons of 24 (and previews for that one political thriller he was in), it's weird seeing Kiefer Sutherland all of a sudden fighting ghosts.

    It looks okay... the special effect set-piece at the end was pretty cool.

    Just saw this trailer. They changed the mall setting? I wasn't a fan of the original, but I always thought it was a neat setting for a horror movie. So much for that.

    How many times can you be scared that something is happening in a reflection that's not happening in real life?

    Your mind, addled from mothball-and-opiate cocktails, has clearly turned against you. I suggest you Pi it.

    The redband puts it back in one, so I don't know what's going on.

    Yeah, they put the mall back in, but now it's a burned down mall and there's still a lot of house stuff.

    This movie looks like not only lame, but also like one big pile of shit. I wonder if Kiefer will scream at the minors "TELL ME WHAT I WANT TO KNOW! NOW!" in his big, Jack Bauer angry voice.

    This movie is shit. So much shit. Shittier than a pile of shit with it raining shit on planet shit in the galaxy of 'this sucks camel dick'.

    The ending is quite laughable.

    I don't know. It's just that you make it sound like an abomination. What's your scale?

    40 is an F, like everything else below 65
