WHAT!?!?!? Well, you see, here's what I love about this. I love it when some genre filmmaker steps out and makes other genre films. I mean, look at Robert Wise... director of CURSE OF THE CAT PEOPLE, THE DAY THE EARTH STOOD STILL, THE HAUNTING and STAR TREK THE MOTION PICTURE... who also directed a few films like... ohhhhh SOUND OF MUSIC, WEST SIDE STORY, etc... I love it when a filmmaker can get a chance to show he isn't just one thing. It's hard to break the mold that Hollywood can put you in, and I really hope this movie is incredible. The only test screening result I saw wasn't too great... but then that was just ONE person's opinion... Let's see how it turns out... eh?
