    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.

    Good watch

    The main character is called Mi-ju and to start off with you think she has it all but things go badly for her when her career as a musician and a teacher are stunted and a menacing ex-pupil threatens her because she got a bad mark. To make things worse an invitation to a home-coming concert triggers her memory of her best friend's fatal car accident. A secret from the past seems to be catching up with her and things aren't what they seem to be. Could it be guilt that's causing all the trouble around her or is it something more sinister? Creepy but slightly confusing - still overall it's a good watch.
