Trailer: Oxide Pang Goes 3D (Again) With SLEEPWALKER 3D

November 3rd Oxide Pang's SLEEPWALKER 3D will get its cinematic release in Hong Kong. The supernatural thriller marks another solo effort as well as return to 3D (a technology Oxide seems to be obsessed with like James Cameron),instead of reuniting with his brother Danny whom both have introduced cinephiles to Eye Franchise as well various over horrors such as recycle Oxide teams up with his actress with Angelica Lee Sinje.

Sleepwalker is atmospheric eerie thriller which has the trademark heavy laden CG effects with dream like sequences that look visually like Peter Jackson's ones in The Lovely Bones though this one looks a little more psychological than afterlife revenge. Its hard to really pinpoint the mood of this movie as it seems to drift from cyberdellic, to tense police thriller, dark supernatural thriller to surreal oddities. When I watch the trailer I do get a feel of Julia's eyes here fearing Sleepwalker is a predictable affair, hopefully not as it looks worth a look when it comes out, honestly Oxide Pang does seem to work better when co-directing with his brother.

Yi has never imagined a revolving dream haunting her every night would evolves into to a nightmare in real life. Shortly after a dream man enters her gloomy life, Yi, a sleepwalker, is set back again by a past broken relationship and becomes a suspected murderer of her ex-husband. The clearer her dream develops, the more real the accused crime appears to her .Did she really kill when sleepwalking?
