assume a movie called "Red Eye" will involve
a fright-filled fuselage of blood and gore.What
you might not expect from the guru of wanton horror,
who brought us the "Nightmare on Elm Street"

mounts a script by first-time feature film writer Carl
Ellsworth that stars deserving"It" girl du

Review By Jason
Anderon:
Wes Craven no longer wants to make Wes Craven
films. Well, that's not entirely accurate. The director
of Scream and A Nightmare on Elm Street is not about
to quit the business or change his name. Plus, it says
"A Wes Craven Film" right there on the poster
for Red Eye. His new thriller even features someone
getting stabbed in the throat. But after the torturous
process of making the appropriately ill-fated Cursed,
the filmmaker desperately wanted to do something different,
something that belonged outside the horror genre with
which his name has been synonymous since 1972's The
Last House on the Left.....More..
