My guess would be "The Ring" or "The Ring 2", but I don't know it for a fact.

Buffista Movies 7: Brides for 7 Samurai
A place to talk about movies--old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
I sorta' liked Dark City, but I feel it was somewhat ruined by the voiceover at the beginning that explains the conceit of the film. (Apparently they thought it would be too confusing without it.)

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
It looks like it could be any of the remakes of Japanese horror movies that hit in the last ten years.

I remember being really startled when Dark City was Ebert's #1 film of the year.

Ebert liked Dark City so much, that on one of the DVD editions, he gets a commentary track all to himself.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand
No. The eyeball was scenery in a production of Tosca, and I guess the half-naked men were opera singers. However unlikely that seems.

Oh wait, you said half-naked. My mistake.
Horror movie people--do you know what this is from: [link]
It's not from Ringu, the American Ring remakes, or any of the Ju-On/Grudge films. I haven't seen whatever it is, but based on the previews Drag Me to Hell might be a good candidate if it's from a recent major release.

Oooh, I could see that being the case.

I saw Drag Me to Hell and I can't picture that being in it.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
I saw Hurt Locker last night. Beautifully directed and acted. Some of the dialogue was a little on-the-nose for me, but I could forgive that for the overall intensity of the film.

And SO well acted. Even the special guest stars were totally appropriate in their roles.
