Deja View

Ed Glaser, the founder of Dark Maze Studios, reviews foreign films that bear a striking resemblance to some more famous films made in the US.The reviews are unique in that Glaser does not critique the films, but compares the differences between the remake and the original and how this reflects on the cultures.

3-D Movie: The episode on the 3-D movie Aabra Ka Daabra was filmed with a Aiptek 3-D pocket cam.
Foreign Remake: The subject of the show.
Incredibly Lame Pun: The title.
Pixellation: Done in the water bed scene on A Nightmare on Elm Street 4: The Dream Master on the Mahakaal episode.
The Smart Guy: Because of his foreign film background, Ed is usually brought in as a guest to explain historical context on other Channel Awesome reviews, including some for The Cinema Snob and Obscurus Lupa. This occasionally backfires, such as the time when the Snob asked Ed to provide the history on the other Turkish E.T. movie, and he just starts making stuff up as he goes along because there's nothing written about it.
