From the beautifully eerie house and a haunting unsettling score, to the quelling cinematography and a cast of acting brilliance, this film gives all that you want from a hint on a horror perspective.

Directed by Jee Woon Kim (A Bittersweet Life, The Last Stand) takes psychology and ghosts to a twisty level starring Kap-su Kim (I Saw The Devil) Jung-ah Yum (The Mimic) Soo jung Lim (I'm a Cyborg, but that's ok) and Geun young Moon (Innocent Steps) .

From the beginning, its tensely silence sets a viewer up nicely when the first great shot of the film focuses in, and what a ride it is leading up to a haunted house filled with disparity amongst the people who live in it. Although there is quite a slow pacing of this unique filmmaking, it centers in on characters in a way that M. Night Shyamalan did with his "The Sixth Sense", only there was more to explore with the living.

The performance level from the cast was outstanding with Jung-ah Yum practically stealing every scene. But make no mistake, Geun young Moon and Soo Jung Lim delivered their parts along side Kap Su Kim. All four dominate their roles and create something unitedly special.

For a film that was released in 2003, it really stands the test of time and can be re-watched when called for. It's a masterpiece of film work to its finest and one not to be denied.
