Trying to Find Spooky Movie

no, it wasn't a J-Horror movie.

Actors were American / English / Canadian

bump 'cause I'm intrigued

At this point OP I think your best bet is to find some investors to finance it and just remake the movie/show yourself.

Once you've finished it and found a distributor maybe the original creators will try and sue then you'll know what the original was.

Sounds like a good movie, I want to watch it.

That's a clever plan.

I'm actually considering just writing it out and seeing if having it done that way will trigger some Copyright bullshit or something.

If not I guess I get the honor of "creating" an original story.

Giving this advice hurts me more than it hurts you, but seriously: Go to plebbit /r/tipofmytongue or some shit. Those guys are wizards at this sort of thing.

The premise seems familiar. Maybe it was a tv series episode with a plot mostly unrelated to the main show.

I was thinking it could be a X-files episode, but OP would have remembered Scully or Mulder.

I thought it might have been from early Supernatural. I can't remember much of that show, but I'm pretty sure it had episodes where main character brothers were out of focus.
