Shutter Review


If A picture is worth a thousand words, then a photographer is a virtual library. Especially when that photographer is hiding a secret. A secret that will betray him in his images. The whole Asian Horror Film concept has taken off in the United States. Some are better than others. Many people are burned out on the genre. I did not see the American remake of Shutter having previously seen the original. I cannot compare the two, but would recommend the original on it's own merit. The concept we find at work in Shutter is an interesting one. Be sure your sins will find you out...the lesson that is learned in this film. Following a celebration during which he took several photographs, Tun's girlfriend Jane hits a girl on the highway. After stopping to see what happened, Tun tells her to continue driving. The following days are filled with disaster as ghostly images appear in photographs and Tun's friends begin killing themselves one by one. Tun has a secret. Jane does not realize that there is more to the story until she starts investigating the images in the photographs.
