Great movie. I've seen the american version first and so I was a little disapointed but not enough to rate it lower than 5 stars. A scary experience that is very well copied to the ring but still I think the american version was able to explore the story behind the tape better.

In my opinion, the best horror movie ever. You will experience true terror and fear. Naomi Watts and David Dorfman are brilliant in their perfomances. After have seen it you will not be able to turn your tv on for some time.

Not as good as the first one but the story involving samara's birth and the more detailed visual effects as well as the actors performance (wich is again remarkable) makes it worth. Be prepared to get spooked again.

Rings
(2005, Unrated)
For a short movie it's pretty good. Almost as good as the ring and the ring 2. Due to its short lengh it is more intense than a regular movie. Ryan Merriman acts very well as someone who will die in seven days.

Great movie. Very intense fear experience. Only comparable with The Ring. Great cast, american and japanese. The story his very well put together.
Really Good horror movie.

this one is years light back comparing it to first movie. Some creepy moments but not really scary. The plot is also poorest and much more confusing. That end doesn't make sense. Why did the girl replaced Kayako?!?!?

Wow! Those japanese really know how to make horror movies. So many scary moments on the last scenes! Good story. Nice ending.

This sequel to the great sucess that was one missed call is not as good as the original. It could have been if the plot was better developed. In fact, this one differs so much from the first that it hardly seams to be a sequel. Overalls, this is still a great japanese horror flick.

This is a great finale to the horror thriology One Missed Call. It may not be as brilliant as the first one but it is better than the second. At least the story is indeed the following to the events of the first movie, which didn't happen in the second.

I will not rate this one as a five star movie because of the strange plot it has. The end is really strange and confusing. I didn't understand it. However the movie is preatty good. The concept of a suicide club is interesting for such kind of movie and the gore is also very good. The only things that spoils it is really the twisting ending.

Good horror movie. Again the japanese have given prooves that they really know how to make horror movies with a low budget. The cast has also a great performance. Although the visual effects were not realistic enough to be scary by their own, when shown in the right moments they do really do the work.
Only one bad thing: the music of the credits! I know that it had an happy ending but that music seams to be from an japanese cartoon movie, not suited to an horror movie!

In my opinion this movie is by far better than the first one. Although the storyline has nothing to do with the original, it is more watchable. It has a better plot, better audio score, a better cast and more scary moments. But the ultimate difference between this one and The Eye is that it has more drama.
Therefore, this isn't just a horror movie, it is also a decent dramatic ghost story.
Even the cast performances are good and solid, the leading actress Qi Shu made an outstanding job.
The movie only has two flaws. The first is on the hospital rooftop scene, come on, even a ghost can't save a person from TWO falls from that hight! That's just stupid. The second is the directors' choice on how the ghosts reencarnate on the babies. We can easly see that the ghost is a person swimming! That's weird and stupid.

This movie is awsome! It may in the category of horror but it is also a great piece of drama. The plot is intese at the action has some creepy moments but, the only reason why I don't rate it 5 stars it's because it is a little confusing and hard to follow. But it is really an brilliant movie.

This movie is classified as a horror movie but it only causes you to jump in your seat a few times. At first sight, a cursed wig sounds ridicullous, especially when you see it climbing stairs (lol). However, the story behind the wig makes sense and therefore the movie is not so silly as it could had been.
But I really liked the movie because it is a very sad story. For one reason or another, all characters are unhappy and miserable. You can feel real sorrow for the two main characters...

A great film, with a brilliant plot. The end is amazing, the only true moment that makes sense. Although it may be difficult to understand what is reality and delusion, past and present it's the end that makes everything to connect. To really enjoy the movie in its plenitude you should see it more than once.

Good story, although the story could be better explored. The dolls are actually creepy and the deaths scenes are ok. Plus, it has some hillarious moments provided by some characters. Good asian horror movie. (I felt sorry for the little girl in a red dress :( )

Not exactly a horror movie that keeps you awake at night. It may be from the same creators of The Ring, Grudge or Dark Water but it isn't for sure a scary movie. More liked to be a funny, strange and dark one. I gave some good laughs watching it. However, what make it a good movie is the series of twists in the end. They happen one after the other, making it a little hard to follow.

One of those movies with too much violence but it also has an excllent plot. Good drama movie.

Cool movie. I also think that todays youth are disrespectful. However, killing each other in a stupid game is not the solution. This movie also points out how far a human being can go to survive.
Overall, the movie has a good concept, in a heird kind of way. I can't wait to see the sequel.

Another great horror movie from South Korea. A great plot with twists all over the place and a good cast performance. The little girl's performance was especially good.
In the beginning the movie is a little confusing and hard to understand what the well is going on, since the story about sex scandles mix up with the ghost story but while the movie unfolds it gets clear and a little predictable what will happen. The the exception of the end, I was pretty suprised with that final twist.
Overall, this is a good horror movie but an even better drama story.

Arang
(2006, Unrated)
Just another asian horror movie. A young ghost girl with long black hair seeking for revenge. The story itself is interesting but its development isn't done in the best way.
The plot is confusing and I only could understand it near the end but the final twist is a smart move. And despite some few scary moments provided by the changes of silence and music the movie isn't scary at all.
Overall Arang is an average horror movie that lacks on inovation and just limits itself by using the same chichés used by previous sucessfull asian horror movies.

Another good asian horror movie. It's not a good movie because it was great special efffects or awsome creepy moments, wich it does't have, it is a good movie because it was a good story and two very unexpected and interesting twists.
The movie plot is so good that it turns the movie more into a drama than into a horror movie, a normal feature in asian horror movies.
To be a better movie it should have more creepy moments because the rest it sure does have. The end especially is great: first it seams to be tragic, then a twist comes and give us the idea that everything will be ok, but then another twist comes and everything turns out to be horrific again.
Overall it's a good movie with some major flaws (due to the lack of a higher budget) in visual effects and creepyness that don't allow the movie to be perfect.

This is the original movie from which The Lake House was made. Therefore, it is impossible to this be a bad movie, although I prefer The Lake House, with Keanu Reeves and Sandra Bullock.

Great movie with a passionable love story. Also great performances from Keaunu Reeves and Sandra Bullock (they are a nice screen couple). I truly recommend it...

Execellent movie. It revolutionized the movie industry. what there is more to say. Great action, great special and visual effects, very interesting story, although it can be a little too odd and confusing at first.

Great sequel but when comparing this one to the others, this one is the poorest but still is an amazing picture. The scene in the highway is just awsome! And the love story between Neo and Trinity is cute.
|
|
| 28 |
The perfect endind for this fine thriology. The battle scenes in Zion are very impressive. The fight Neo vs. Smith is also good. The only sad thing is Trinity death.

The major quality of this movie is its cast. Some many talent stars together: Cate, Keanu, Giovanni and Hilary give to the film a special touch. The story is interisting but not uncommon. And it is always fun to see Katie Holmes dead. lol

I like it! It's a similar movie to The Exorcist but much better. That hell was really cool! lol... Besides, it has Keanu Reeves and Rachel Weisz so it had to be a great movie.

Saw
(2004, R)
The all concept of the movie is brilliant. The feeling of intense horror last troughout the intire movie. The acting by the cast was also pretty good.

This is one is just a shadow of the first one but still a good movie. It doesn't have half of the tension and mistery that the first one. Very predictable... just by watching its trailer I could see that Amanda has somehow involved in the game, and not just has a player...

This one was better than saw II, way much better. Better gore, with more tension and a better plot. I loved the way it connects with the other two. The final twist was anwsome. The only bad thing: to many games inside games that made it a little hard to follow in the end.
|
|

I didn't saw the original and so I can't compare them but it is a good movie. It's bloody and full of tension but not scary.
I liked but for what I've heard I was expecting more.

Not really my kind of horror movies but still it manages to entertaining. The story concept is inovating and therefore interesting.
|
|

Same as the firt one but with even more gore to keep us glued to the screen. I also liked the way the story is related to the first movie.
|
|
| 39 |
Better than the second one but I still preffer the first one. This one may have more elaborated gore scenes (awsome deaths) but the story could have been better.

It's a good horror movie. Not a masterpice but it fullfils the primary needs of a horror/terror movie fan. The whole cast is very well in their acting, especially Ryan Reynolds.

Excellent movie! Thrillhing and exciting action with a story very well put together. It has a twist after the other. Brilliant and unexpected ending!

One more movie with a ghost who didn't "cross over". The tooth scene is very gross. The story's development is very well organized.
|
|
| 43 |
A great horror movie on its time. A classic that will always inspire directors.
|
|

Not a very appealing horror movie, except for those who are really addicted to video games. The weakest point of the movie is its story. It should have been more explored.
