Great Turture Scene

[brian-995 · 7/10 · 10 September 2005]

The Turture scene is by far the GREATEST however sickest i have ever seen.

the defining feature is probably the camera angles working to show you more of the torture, less of the crap "panning away" action. this gives the film a sick but strangely twisted ending.

Definitely Better than "The Ring" 1 & 2 and completely blows "The Grudge" out of the water. Rather than relying on a superstition for the horror, it is created by a real person. intensifying it greatly.

Gruesome gory and totally mind blowing!!!!

I watched this film on TV last night as i had heard good things about it from a friend, but with not being a fan of subtitle i gave it a miss but my was i wrong, i have never been as genuinely scared by the film as this ever. I think the reason for this was that you didn't really see that much of what was coming to you actually coming... what with it starting of like a slow boring romantic comedy but i actually feel now like it was the directors intention to bore you so that you would not see the last 45 minutes coming.

Wouldn't want to ruin this by going into the details but if anyone can spare the time to watch this film please stick with it and don't give up after the first hour the latter part is a total pay off and totally amazing...
