I don't know if you're aware of this or not but it turns out there is a Bollywood remake of Mike Flanagan's 2013 evil-mirror flick OCULUS in the works. Did you know that? I wouldn't blame you if you didn't.
Anyhow the film is called DOBAARA: SEE YOUR EVIL and not only has the flick finished shooting but we have the remake's full trailer for you guys to check out.
Now, I know what you're thinking; "What does Mike Flanagan think of this remake of his film?" Well, the director took to Twitter to voice is thoughts on the upcoming remake.
Haha. You gotta give it to Flanagan for having such a sense of humor about the new movie. And why shouldn't he? As is the case with all other remakes, his film will continue to be available and untouched within the years to come. So why not have a bit of fun, right?
Mike Flanagan's next flick is the adaptation of Stephen King's GERALD'S GAME, which is set to be a Netflix Exclusive once the film is ready for release sometime next year.
OCULUS synopsis:
Ten years ago, tragedy struck the Russell family, leaving the lives of teenage siblings Tim and Kaylie forever changed when Tim was convicted of the brutal murder of their parents. Now in his 20s, Tim is newly released from protective custody and only wants to move on with his life; but Kaylie, still haunted by that fateful night, is convinced her parents’ deaths were caused by something else altogether: a malevolent supernatural force¬¬ unleashed through the Lasser Glass, an antique mirror in their childhood home. Determined to prove Tim’s innocence, Kaylie tracks down the mirror, only to learn similar deaths have befallen previous owners over the past century. With the mysterious entity now back in their hands, Tim and Kaylie soon find their hold on reality shattered by terrifying hallucinations, and realize, too late, that their childhood nightmare is beginning again…
