    CELLO

    This is one of the most subtle, yet ultimately unnerving horror films I have seen in years. Beautifully photographed, with stunningly stylish sets, the story revolves around the rivaly in the lives of two girls who were both superb cello players - a rivalry that results in death and revenge from beyond the grave. The film is only let down by a 'second' ending, which undermines much of the terror that comes before, and would have been better had the final few minutes been clipped from it. Even so, this is a superb example of Asian horror at its best.

    Disappointing

    I rented this as a fan of Korean film and the AsiaExtreme brand. The trailer was particularly inviting, with its reference to 'The Others' and 'A Tale of Two Sisters'. I was, therefore, somewhat disappointed with the 'not-so engaging' storyline, obscure characters with no overall relevance to the plot and the lack of suspense and scares. Overall, it was a bit of a mess. Unless you're a completist or a huge fan on Korean film/horror, I'd stick with 'A Tale of Two Sisters'.
