To watch a Korean-based movie, you got to be kidding !
I agree with the first two but the third... hmm... gotta be selective cause a few of them are good, the rest - wait till the VCD's are out!

I know what you mean, a lot of trailers actually show the only good parts that will be in the movie!Originally posted by Rhonda:Orh! Waaaaah... can watch "Saw" liao!
Everytime a horror movie's out and I watch the trailers, I get sooo excited but at the same time, apprehensive that it might be a disappointment.
But trust me, The Descent was fantastic. I will be buying the DVD when it is released, even though I already watched it in the cinema. Ditto for Saw 2. -

ju-on dat stupoid kid, think its lame, have to be lame and proved to be lame
anyway, whether its Jap or Korean...all will be lame for all values of X greater than 'The Ring 1'
Typically they give u a few scares dat last 0.5 - 1 second, it will happen more than once definitely but less than thrice...interval will more more than 3 mins apart but lesser than 15...dats wat Jap/Korean movies offer...cheap thrills...so u can roughly estimate when the next cheap scare will be....yawn....Next pls -
saw 1 better than saw 2....saw 3 dunno will decline further anot...Originally posted by av98m:I know what you mean, a lot of trailers actually show the only good parts that will be in the movie!

Like I said, if it is something I cannot relate too for horror movies, I get bored -
How about a horror movie where the main character returns to work after a splendid vacation to find 500 urgent emails in his/her inbox and new emails keep coming in for no reason? And his/her colleagues and bosses suddenly behave strangely as well. He/she finds that suddenly he/she does not have any friends at work! All ex-friends now become enemies and the whole organisation seems possessed!Originally posted by elindra:I almost fell asleep watching Ju-On and The Ring

If a movie like that came out I'd be scared watching it.
Oh, and addition of some gratituous nudity helps.

Actually, there's a Korean horror movie where some freaky email with an attached video clip gets circulated and then people start dying - White Room.Originally posted by av98m:How about a horror movie where the main character returns to work after a splendid vacation to find 500 urgent emails in his/her inbox and new emails keep coming in for no reason?

Looked promising, but within the first few mins into the show, it fell flat on its face.
A Korean horror movie that was pretty entertaining was hmm... can't remember the title but it was about people receiving phone calls from this weird no. and then they die. The plot was pretty good. -

That will not be a horror movie!!! It will be a total nightmare!!!!!! -
I have this Japanese horror movie called the Red Room. Not for the faint hearted. Its about a bunch of people playing a game for a million dollar prize. Very, very, very sick and twisted.Originally posted by Rhonda:Actually, there's a Korean horror movie where some freaky email with an attached video clip gets circulated and then people start dying - White Room.

Needless to say you can't get it locally. I downloaded it before the bitorrent sites came under attack. -
The movie with the trailer that told-all was "The Island"!Originally posted by av98m:I know what you mean, a lot of trailers actually show the only good parts that will be in the movie!
But trust me, The Descent was fantastic. I will be buying the DVD when it is released, even though I already watched it in the cinema. Ditto for Saw 2. After watching the trailer, you don't need to watch the movie anymore cause you more or less would know what the entire movie is about liao! -
Thats the whole idea!Originally posted by elindra:

Even more sick and twisted than Saw?Originally posted by av98m:I have this Japanese horror movie called the Red Room. Not for the faint hearted.

Nang Nak got funny part mah?Originally posted by Fatum:I remember the time when I watched the Thai movie "Nang Nak" with a bunch of friends ....
somehow it ended up being so funny to us ... we were laughing so hard ... that the rest of the cinema got infected as well and started laughing along with us ! ...

Yes.Originally posted by elindra:Even more sick and twisted than Saw? -
u still can get DVD? It's nice..creepy love story..Originally posted by Rhonda:Actually, there were good reviews for that movie! Too bad I missed it. -
i love horrors... but always no khaki to go with me.. n i think watching in cinemas is best! Sometimes i 'll sit down there waiting n thinkin whether i will regret gg anot..cos it may be lame or too scary for me...
But so far.. not much scare me out of my wits yet.. I think Shutter is not bad.. Korean ones suck... Japanese after 'The Ring' is all bullshit.... The maid is ok..but d sound veri Ci er...
The Eye...i watch at home..not scary should go to cinema... -
Wah! Sounds like the RA Jap movies they showed here - The Suicide Club and Empire... something.Originally posted by av98m:I have this Japanese horror movie called the Red Room.

I downloaded it before the bitorrent sites came under attack. Those will never be released on VCD here because they're too gruesome! -
