Ghosts have really bad hair., 11 March 2005
6/10
Author: ZombieKilla81 from Hawaii, USA

Much like Ringu, Ju-on, Ryong, A Tale of two Sisters and about a thousand other Asian horror films, we have a female ghost with with thick-black hair pulled over her face exacting some kind of hellish retribution on hapless victims.

What keeps this from simply disappearing underneath the mounds of similar films is a greater focus on story (specifically the who and why) and a couple creative death scenes.

All around the filming is solid and most of the scare set-ups work pretty well. Some of the characters are a little over-written/acted and the film looses focus moving toward the end, as if the movie is trying to cover too much ground to fast.

A mostly enjoyable, if wholly forgettable, supernatural yarn.

6/10
