Directing brothers Oxide and Danny Pang made a name for themselves
with their region-wide horror film The Eye, which turned
Angelica Lee into an overnight star. Re-Cycle sees the
three reuniting to make another slick and well-imagined horror film.

This time, Angelica plays a popular romance writer who decides
to write a horror novel for a change. Holed up in her apartment,
she finds the world and characters she imagines slowly coming to
life. Long haired apparitions and weird phone calls eventually give
way to an entire town filled with zombies and cadavers, reminiscent
of Silent Hill. Angelica struggles to find her way back
home, but the horrors keep repeating and recycling themselves.

Re-Cycle shows how far Oxide and Danny Pang have come
in the industry. While their earlier movies like Bangkok Dangerous
and The Eye had minimal use of special effects, Re-Cycle
is chock-full of CGI images. The brothers are obviously comfortable
in making blockbuster-style movies and will continue to impress
movie-goers with their technical agility.

Though Re-Cycle is somewhat short on narrative logic,
this CGI-fest should please younger moviegoers.
