Re: eye candy motion blur effect - backwards?

I can't remember that effect off hand.

But would rotating the image before applying the effect work ?

Maybe make several layers, each rotation w/effect per layer ?

Also maybe doing a small selection of each corner after rotating then
applying the effect to get the motion blur to only appear outward from
each corner ?

BTW: does anybody have the URL for that movie ? I tried www.sleepyhollow.com
but it only leads to a telecommunications site and not the movie.
