According to rumors swirling on the Internet, an English-language remake is already in the works, possibly directed by David Cronenberg.

Vigalondo explores it (time travel) just enough to keep this thriller moving, and Karra Elejalde is entirely convincing as the unwilling time traveler, who finds himself threatened by not only his past self but his future one as well.
