That never occurred to me... thanks for pointing it out.<br /><br />Maybe someone suggested this film's title to Franco as a pun on the currently successful slasher movie, and, being a general pop culture obsessive, it sent him back to the Woolrich story (or the film) for inspiration..?<br /><br />Or maybe not, but I love these networks of possible connections...Benhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14951955227326548340noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3369610344911858466.post-16173557232280203642012-09-23T22:04:07.402+01:002012-09-23T22:04:07.402+01:00I'm guessing the title is ultimately derived f...I'm guessing the title is ultimately derived from "The Night has a Thousand Eyes", a novel by the brilliant and deeply odd crime writer Cornel Woolrich that was made into a highly regarded 1948 film noir. <br /><br />Haven't seen the film or read Woolrich's book, but the plot does seem to involve a stage psychic developing real supernatural powers, so I wonder if Franco used a memory of the story as a jumping-off point.Soukesianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11536727398720861777noreply@blogger.com
