    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.

    Customer Review

    The film was a waste of and hour and ahalf of my time.

    Whilst the plot began well and made for an interesting film, it took and bizarre sinister turn that ended SO disappointingly. The end really was stupid and film producers should be banned from making films with such an ending that i wont put what it is just incase you do buy it. I recommend you avoid buying the film. I would not pay money for the film, im glad i only rented it.

    If you changed the ending, lost the housekeeper and focused more on the obsessed student and made it a thriller around the obsession it could be a good film but the eerie parts of the film had me thinking what the hell is going on.
