On this day in 2005 (in the U.S.), Dark Water enjoyed its first theatrical screening ever when it was released for an exclusive premiere event for the good people of New York City, New York. Directed by Walter Salles from a story by Kôji Suzuki, Hideo Nakata, Takashige Ichise, and Rafael Yglesias, the film starred Jennifer Connelly, John C. Reilly, Tim Roth, and others. According to our friends at IMDB.com, here's the plot summary:
"A mother and daughter, still wounded from a bitter custody dispute, hole up in a run-down apartment building, where they are targeted by the ghost of a former resident."
For the record:
At the 2006 Fangoria Chainsaw Awards, Dark Water received an impressive four nominations in the categories of 'Best Score,' 'Best Screenplay,' 'Best Supporting Actor,' and 'Best Actress.'
Editor's Note:
Just for clarity's sake, it's worth mentioning that 2005's Dark Water is a remake of the 2002 Japanese feature of the same name.
