So far, watching Asian horror, I've noticed that they can really make me care so much about the characters or the families. As a idiotic westerner, I'm used to "watered" down horror movies with cheap jump scares characters that mean nothing to the overall story. However, that is often not the case with old Asian horror films. Another slow burn horror that doesn't really focus on the ghost or the spooky things going on but puts the family up front. Showing you a mother and daughter that just want to live together while showing you parallels to the story of the missing girl's. The scary parts are when the mother loses her daughter and you never know who or what took her at that time (happens often). You can look at this movie in a number of ways and read tons of reviews on it but you won't get the same impact. If your just getting into Asian horror I recommend it to see what a good horror story feels like. No reason to say more then that.
