Well there is the case of the Remake, but I will criticize that, on it's own. Let's just say, that the remake never even comes close to the south Korean horror/thriller, that we've been served here. A movie, with a great visual style, a very good art direction and camera man. It's edited in a manner, that allows you to dig deep into the suspense story (if you let yourself do that, that is) and still remains complex enough to challenge your brain (something you can't say about the remake though).

The acting is pretty strong, for a movie that is declared a horror movie (although as I mentioned it walks a thin line between that and the mystery/suspense thriller element it also has ... almost like a detective story, with a touch of drama in it). Of course if you know that you can't handle Asian movies well, than you won't be able to like it as much as I (and others) did
