Wow.. I'm actually amazed.

I've always been a really big fan of Asian horror films, but I never actually found them scary. They're great for suspense, and the plot twists and such are always great. But scary? Not really.

At least until now.

Seeing that "Shutter" was being remade ( oh boy ), it reminded me that I had yet to see the original movie. So I decided to give it a shot. And.. wow. I was very impressed by this movie. The story was GREAT, the acting was good.. and best of all, it actually freaked me out. A lot of A-horror leaves me going "WTF" or at least keep me thinking, but not only did this one do this, it freaked the hell out of me.

Anybody else agree?

I agree. It is one of the few in the last 8 years that are actually scary.

This is the first asian horror since Ringu that I'm happy was remade. I probably wouldn't have ever seen this had it not been remade and I'm so glad I did. It even unseated The Eye as my second favorite horror movie, behind the absolute genius A Tale of Two Sisters, of course.

I was spooked for like 10 minutes after watching the movie. I walked to the bathroom, and none of the lights were turned on outside.
