Nakata and Ichise have themselves quite the reputation in the world of JHorror. And now they have teamed up to bring us another pants wetting movie called Inhuman
Two of Japan’s top moviemakers are teaming up for a horror project at 20th Century Fox and Regency Enterprises, says The Hollywood Reporter.
Hideo Nakata (The Ring Two) is attached to direct Inhuman, which pairs him with The Grudge producer Taka Ichise, who is producing alongside Vertigo Entertainment’s Roy Lee and Doug Davison.
The project is loosely based on a Japanese murder case.
Now I am typically a fan of j-horror. Its a totally different look at horror films. Supernatural elements in Japanese mythos cannot be defeated by some last remaining stalked virgin girl. Nothing supernatual can be stopped by a human. Gives a whole new take on making you scared.
But keep in mind that this team wrote Dark Water, and I have heard nothing good about it (except that Jennifer Connely is hot)
Well maybe they will put out a big hit and make me stay up late like the original Grudge did.
My son saw the preview for that movie on TV and is still afraid of the drop ceiling in the dining room.
