Prediction: Oculus
Shiri’s Prediction: If Harry Potter has taught us anything, it’s the fact staring into mirrors is dangerous. I won’t give J.K. Rowling credit for any sort of meditation on vanity (or any other sort of meditation for that matter), and I’m not going to give Oculus credit for deep thought either. Admit it though: you used to play Bloody Mary at sleepovers too and you weren’t ever quite sure that she wouldn’t be there waiting to kill you one of those times. There’s a reason Alice went “through the looking glass” and not “through the nice front door with the stained glass window in it.” Ever catch a flicker out of the corner or your eye? Something that disappears when you blink or look harder? Yeah? Me too. So don’t tell me this trailer doesn’t scare the crap out of you.
Looks like it’s probably going to play on pretty standard tropes and my forebrain tells me “meh” but my lizard brain is skittering under a rock and refusing to come out.
Luke’s Prediction: Okay, now I want to like this movie, Katee Sackoff and Karen Gillan in a horror movie? I am there.
BUT, look at that first production company, WWE Studios? This is a wrestling film? Really?
Oh, and the cheese starts, WTF? Bloody mirror? Bad fake blood? Katee looking evil and crawling is the worst it gets?
Yep, I will catch this one when it is free on Fear.net on-demand about a week after it comes out.
Shiri adds Luke, you’re being far to dismissive here. I mean, come on! WWE + Katee Sackoff + Karen Gillan + fake blood? There are all kinds of implications you haven’t considered.
