Thanks for the recommendation. I too am excited about SPLICE, if he brings the same intelligence to it that appeared in CUBE, it could be brilliant. And with actors like Adrien Brody and Sarah Polley, he has a cast that can deliver. It also doesn't hurt that Guillermo del Toro is listed as an executive producer. I’ll have to check out NOTHING.

I saw this in '97 when it originally played in Canada and have been a fan of the film and Natali since. Very true, some of the performances are sometimes "stagy" but overall, I've always thought the film was completely successful. The same can't be said for the sequels but the original is a classic. Also worth taking note of Natali's other films - "Cypher" has it's moments but I think "Nothing" is a superior film and really quite a marvel when one considers that most of the film takes place in "nothing". Definitely worth a look. Looking forward to <a href="http://www.postergeek.com/6583-Splice-2009.html" rel="nofollow">his next project</a>! Excellent find.
