    I watched this maybe...two years ago? There are a few traces of creativity to be found here, but it seems like Ahn Byeong-Ki has been trafficking in Asian horror cliches for the majority of his film career. Totally skippable.

    Another supernatural slasher out of Asia. Not bad, although a little hard to follow in some places.

    Hye-jin's homecoming should have been a joyous occasion. She was especially happy to see her childhood friend again, the shy Eun-ju. However, when a secret is revealed, harsh words are exchanged. These words deeply affect Eun-ju and, in the next scene, we see her plummeting from ...( read more)a 30-story building. In a flashback provided by Sun-ae, we learn that the ghost of Eun-ju is hunting down all of Hye-jin's friends and killing them..

    The movie moves a little slow , but it has an interesting story to tell and will be appreciated by the viewers...story concerns a group of school friends hiding a secret from the past, which comes back to haunt them...flashbacks and modern day scenes with some thrills and scares are quite a good deal that create tension .

    Nightmare is fine for those who just like to watch horror flicks and disappointing for those that have high expectation...so don't get your hopes up to enjoy the movie...

    A pretty sub-par film, the most interesting image was the one on the DVD cover of the sewn up eyes. Everything else about this ghost story/mystery is pretty boring to slog through to get to the reveal at the end.

    Pass.
