Red Eye
A modest South Korean ghost story, albeit one that retains vestigial hints of promise that only serve to indicate how great it could have been.
-
Agent Mr. Chan
It’s all very pleasant as a celeb-spotting exercise though it does remind you of the much better films these stars have already been in, productions you should be watching instead.
-
BuyBust
We could be reaching fatigue with this style of relentlessly violent edged, Eastern set action flick but ‘BuyBust’s commitment to its own vibe and the impressive setting make it a worthwhile investment.
-
The Ghost
Kim Tae-Kyung’s ‘The Ghost’ rises well above the attempts of its contemporaries to cut an individualistic path through legions of countless ‘Ring’ imitators.
-
Survival Family
The humour is never forced and the drama never over-cooked, meaning that as a whole, the film hits its targets with remarkable accuracy.
-
A Blood Pledge
Lee’s outing in the series really isn’t quite a bad as it might appear, and still contains enough spooky incidence and unexpected scares to make it a decent timewaster for most Asian horror fans.
