The Japanese horror film 'Dark Water' directed by Hideo Nakata and based on a short story by Koji Suzuki is released, inspiring later adaptations.
The American remake of the Japanese film 'Dark Water', starring Jennifer Connelly, is released, bringing the story to a Western audience.
I need to rewatch this and see if it moves from a like to a favorite for me. I forget about it, see it mentioned, and remember that it was way better than I thought it was going to be. This is a great one to watch if you haven't yet.
Finally got to see this in theaters - it's a lovely movie. One of the higher quality family-friendly sci fi movies in a LONG time. The part I liked least about the book was the humor - movie was the same. Which speaks to how good the adaptation was.
This is the best action movie of all time!
