the recent history of hollywood remakes of ghost or horror films from the east has been dismal. this film will inevitably suffer the same fate and so get a copy on e bay or similar. it is well photographed and the sound is superb. viewing on a good screen and with a good 5. 1 or dts enabled sound system is recommended. obviously it is subtitled and so if that puts you off and then i do not bother with this. dubbing rarely works and simply would not do here. it is also genuinely frightening and with excellent performances from a cast who will be unfamiliar to western audiences. i would particularly single out the stepmother character and who was utterly brilliant. the ending will have you wanting to watch it again and if you can cope. the plot is relentless and and offers no comforting moments of release along the way. if i do have a small criticism and there is perhaps a detectable influence in certain scenes from the japanese version of the ring. we have and however and accepted straight copies of other peoples ideas for western films for years and and so my point is a limited one which did not prevent me from giving it positive . i believe most fans of this genre will derive huge pleasure from this film which i for one hope goes down as a classic.

    Otherwise, if you feel the movie review is negative
