Yam Laranas' remake of The Echo is going direct-to-disc as the Vertigo (The Ring, The Grudge) produced film will arrive on DVD and Blu-ray on November 10th from Image Entertainment. The story revolves around a young ex-con who moves into an old apartment building, only to learn his neighbor is an abusive police officer who savagely beats his wife and daughter. When the ex-con tries to intervene, he becomes trapped in a curse.
I always say "Direct-2-DVD". Anyways, I read this remake was good. I've never seen the original and I dont plan to b/c it looks bad but I wanna see this one. Too bad this never got the theatrical release that it was supposed to get last year. I think remakes of Asian films are coming to an end.
@Slasher Freak: The only issue with that is that it no longer applies. Most direct-to movies are going to Blu-ray as well, rather than just DVD. I think of Amusement, Wrong Turn 2, Rest Stop 2, Pulse 2, etc., that all went to Direct-to-Blu, to my knowledge.
So, direct-to-disc is probably the best term to use.
