This is a good quality product that offers good value for money in the short term. Although as with most DVD products, the value will deteriorate over time and should be anle to get a cheaper version next year.

Synopsis
The film begins with a security guard running through an empty underground. He comes across a mirror and starts apologising to his reflection, but then suddenly it seems like he's not talking to himself, he's talking to the mirror. He tries to clean the mirror but accidentally breaks it, then everything changes, his reflection is no longer following him, but picking up the shard of glass. As the reflection pulls the shard across its throat, a gaping wound begins to appear on the security guard's throat.

Ben is estranged from his wife, Amy ...

Keen to return to the horror genre after the movies Flatliners, and The Lost Boys bought him worldwide fame the actor received the script for Alexandre Aja's (The Hills Have Eyes, Haute Tension) mirrors and quickly snapped up the opportunity.

Five years ago the Mayflower department store in the centre of New York suffered a terrible fire, but several years on the owners and the insurance company have still not settled over various issues in the insurance policy. Ben Carson (Sutherland) recently suspended from the police force (after accidentally shooting ...
