Lionsgate has released some new screenshots of their upcoming remake of THE EYE, starring Jessica Alba. I'll put some down below but you can check out the full compliment right here. The horror film stars Alba, Parker Posey, Alessandro Nivola, Tamlyn Tomita and Chloe Moretz. Scribes Sebastian Gutierrez and Jo Jo Yuet-chun Hui penned the screenplay while David Moreau & Xavier Palud directed.

Plot Summary: Sydney Wells (Jessica Alba) is an accomplished, independent, Los Angeles-based concert violinist. She is also blind, and has been so since a childhood tragedy. As our story opens, Sydney undergoes a double corneal transplant, a surgery she has waited her whole life to have, and her sight is restored. After the surgery, neural ophthalmologist Dr. Paul Faulkner (Alessandro Nivola) helps Sydney with the difficult adjustment, and with the support of her older sister Helen (Parker Posey), Sydney learns to see again.

But Sydney's happiness is short-lived as unexplainable shadowy and frightening images start to haunt her. Are they a passing aftermath of her surgery, Sydney's mind adjusting to sight, a product of her imagination, or something horrifyingly real? As Sydney's family and friends begin to doubt her sanity, Sydney is soon convinced that her anonymous eye donor has somehow opened the door to a terrifying world only she can now see.



"The Eye" is a bone-chilling supernatural thriller that tests the boundaries of perception and reality. Directed by David Moreau and Xavier Palud, the team who directed the suspenseful international hit "Them," "The Eye" stars Jessica Alba, Alessandro Nivola and Parker Posey. Produced by Tom Cruise and Paula Wagner with Mike Elliott, Don Granger and Michelle Manning serving as executive producers.

THE EYE will hit theaters Feb. 1, 2008.

Jebus! Can't they just title a movie "Deaf, Dumb, Blind, and Immobile" starring Alba just so no human being is ever again subjected to her 'acting' abilities? It would be two hours of Alba just floating there so that fanboys can have something to jerk it to.

Personally I have no problem with her acting. She ain’t Kate Blanchett in the acting department but she does fine for genre films IMHO.
that said I'd catch a matinee of your suggestion though. Two hours might cause me some permanent damage however. Maybe ½ an hour?

She should either shutup or get naked! Preferably both!

Wasn't this movie already made with Madeline Stowe? I think it was called Blink.

If I remember correctly, it had a great soundtrack consisting of songs by The Drovers.

I guess after her surgery, she now has an eye for trouble. I'll probably rent this one.

Frankly I think I've had my fill of Japanese/Thai/Korean horror remakes involving creepy stringy long haired teenage girls or ashen eye-sunken kids floating by or popping up out of the woodworks. I saw the original Japanese/Thai version at the theater and I literally had deja vu seeing as how I saw the same formula over and over before...

Its not a copycat but I hope the writers of BLINK are taking this to court. There are to many similarities to Madeline Stowe's violinist character from that movie being used with Alba's character. And why does Parker Posey keep getting such shitty roles recently.

They would probably have to sue in Japan since this is the American version of a Japanese flick.
sharpe you're right about that. It must be mandated by Japanese law to use those visuals in all horror movies. Still kind of creepy though. But with a pg-13 rating I'll probably skip it. I need my horror films to be rated R.

SONYMANswallows • Dec 28, 2007, 10:13am •
Not if the Japanese film didnt use the same character traits, In Japan the character is probably a gay bad techno DJ.

I think in the last picture she just watched both fartastic fart films.

I agree with Sharpe and WiseGuy I am tired of the Asian horror film remakes - they are all the same premise.
