Yesterday's movie choice was The Eye 2, which turned out nice. I enjoyed the first Eye and so did Johanna, if to a lesser extent than I. We both thought the sequel was better than the first movie.
Somebody whined in IMDB how the sequel had nothing to do with the original movie and thus it's a spin-off, not a sequel. Who cares? And besides, since when a sequel must've continued from where the first movie ended? While the stories aren't connected, they certainly develop the same theme of seeing spirits.
The second theme of the movie was pregnancy. It reminded us of Rosemary's Baby, but I guess that's because of the scarcity of horror movies about pregnancy. The setting here is quite different, but quite scary. I wouldn't necessarily recommend The Eye 2 to pregnant women. Fans of Asian horror should find this one enjoyable, however.
