Cinematic robbery

Have any of you guys seen the latest episode of "South Park," where all the kids see the most recent Indiana Jones movie and then attempt to file a lawsuit against Steven Spielberg and George Lucas for "raping" Indiana Jones?  Well, that's how I am feeling right now.  This is because I just watched the trailer for "The Uninvited," a horror film coming out this January.  The movie looks terrible, even though I do like some of the stars in it.

But that's not why I'm angry.  I'm angry because this film was originally going to be called "A Tale of Two Sisters," and was supposed to be an American remake of a Korean horror film of the same name.  That original film is one of the creepiest, most well-made horror films I've ever seen.  In fact, it just might be my favorite horror film of all time.  Normally I'm all for remakes (I really liked "The Ring," "Dark Water" and the "Grudge" remakes), but based on the trailer I just watched, it looks like the filmmakers took the best parts of "Sisters" and shoehorned them into a completely different story... which is incredibly stupid, as "Sisters" has an amazing (abeit sometimes confusing) story.

While I sit here contemplating legal action, how about you guys watch the trailers for each of them below.  After that, go out and rent/buy "A Tale of Two Sisters" and see it for yourself.  It'll make a great Halloween film, and you definitely will want to see this version before the craptastic remake comes out.
