An interesting failure

Honestly, I had no idea what to expect from this flick but since I have a weak spot for Ewan McGregor and Ashley Judd, I was really eager to check it out. Basically, this movie is rather unknown and it is not a surprise since it is a remake (ok, that was a cheap move but come one! 99.9 % of all remakes are worthless don't you think?) and, to be honest, it was kind of a mess. Indeed, there was a really weird mood throughout the whole thing and I couldnโ€™t help wondering what the writer were smoking when they were working on this. Same thing concerning Ewan McGregor and Ashley Judd. I mean, they provided some pretty good performances but there was something really eerie about their characters. Eventually, even though the whole thing was just too weird for its own good, I have to admit that I was quite mesmerized by this flick. Eventually, I saw the original French version and I think I actually slightly preferred this remake. To conclude, even though it is a really obscure feature and even though the whole thing was rather half-baked, it still remain a rather fascinating thriller and it is definitely worth a look, especially if you like the genre.
