A Tale of Two Sisters
Following the death of their mother, sisters Su-mi and Su-yeon are sent to convalesce in a mental hospital. When they are released, they are greeted by their father and taken home. Once there, it becomes obvious that this isn't the wholesome family unit that the girls' new step mother wishes it was. On their first night home, disturbing and seemingly unexplainable events - footsteps on the stairs, doors opening of their own accord - begin to occur, and strange hallucinations plague the family.
It soon becomes impossible to tell whether it is the sisters' unstable mental health, the cruel mind games played by the step mother, or the dark presence of a supernatural force which is at work within the house. Stylish and shocking, this visually arresting tale of family secrets and uncertain realities is based on a traditional Korean folk tale. Guaranteed to have you gasping for breath with each successive scare, you'll be kept guessing until the very end of this unique and brilliant film.

Based on an Korean folk tale, this creepy psychological horror creates a pervasive sense of dread, which remains even after the unsatisfactory denouement.

A Great Drama with some good scares
OK, so the trailer for this movie makes it seem like more of an action horror,but you can't judge a movie by its misleading trailer (lol).

Very dull and not scary in any way
Have to say I found this to be a very slow film with a story that just didn't seem to make sense. I just couldn't get an idea of what was going on with ... read more »

The Good, the Bad, the Weird: Ji-woon Kim interview
- 07 Feb 2009
Korean director Ji-woon Kim is best known in the west for the small but perfectly formed horror, A Tale of Two Sisters. That's about to change, however, with the release of his latest film, noodle western The Good, the Bad, the Weird, which just happens to have the largest budget of any live action film in Korean history. As the title would suggest, The Good, the Bad, the Weird is a remake of Sergio Leone's spaghetti western masterpiece The Good, the Bad and the Ugly, but given an Asian... Read more
