You are right about this being the Pangs' second Hollywood film and I've modified my review accordingly. I checked their credits on the imdb and learned they co-directed a ghost story called The Messengers (2007) that didn't ring any bells with me even after I read the cast list and plot description. The higher profile The Eye was a Hollywood re-make of another of their Asian hits, but they don't seem to have been involved in that production.

I'm curious to see both, but have been hesitant to commit to this one until I see the original. Given this glowing review, however, maybe I should abandon this rule for now and check this out before it leaves theatres. Also, I think the Pang brothers did an English language horror movie a couple of years back, but I can't for the life of me remember the name of it.
