The Gist: This is an English-language remake of his 1997 film, but the setting will now be the Hamptons. The film is about a middle-class family on holiday who are terrorized by two young men.
Fact: This is an exact copy of his 1997 film: literally shot by shot with only 1 minute more in length than the original. The question is why?
See It: Notorious for making quality-infused uncomfortable narratives – his filmography acts as one big masterwork for the 7th art form.
Release Date/Status?: WIP releases this March.14th.
