With ace visuals, great scares, and clever concepts, RE-CYCLE, propels the Pang Brothers to the forefront of New Asian Horror with a highbrow horror film. The central performance by Lee Sinje (a.k.a. Angelica Lee) outshines her work in the Pang Brothers 2002 film THE EYE. There is an alternate plane of reality parallel to our own, one that serves as a dumping ground for discarded and forgotten hopes, dreams, and desires. Ting-yin (Lee Sinje) suffers from writer’s block while working on her second novel. To help her overcome this problem, her agent announces at a press conference that the author is working on a story about the supernatural. Ting-yin, a skeptic who knows nothing about the ghost world, decides to explore it first hand -- and gets drawn into this alternate reality. She writes a draft based upon this experience, then discards it – only to find it back upon her desk. She then writes another draft, discards it – and is soon sucked into a surreal wasteland. Not sure if she’s trapped in her novel, or is actually lost within the underworld, she has the unique horror of being confronted with everything she has every thrown away in her life. Like a post-apocalyptic ‘Alice in Wonderland’, RE-CYCLE is a horror-fantasy-thriller that leaves you reeling long after the credits roll.
