Apartment 704
|
The attractive packaging hides an ugly secret which is revealed in the top quality DVD which is housed in the lovely fold out case. The English subtitles are excellent, though I can't say if they're accurate, but the timing is perfect and the translation makes sense, as though the DVD were a UK or US release. The movie itself moves at a good pace, is nicely edited, well written and very satisfying. I enjoyed this film and certainly recommend it. |

South Korea does it again.
|
It is not just about J-Horror anymore. South Korea is putting out some awesome horror films as well like: "Arang", "Ryung", "Cello" and "Wishing Stairs". "Apartment" is one of them. Ahn Byung Ki is one of the masters of horror. His films "Phone", "Bunshinsaba", "Nightmare" and of course "Apartment" are some of the best Asian horror films out there. He knows how to make films that scare the viewers. Many Asian countries are putting out some quality horror films; for example: Thailand with "Shutter" and "Ghost of Mae Nak", Singapore with "The Maid", The Philippines with "Sigaw" and "Feng Shui", Hong Kong with "The Eye", "The Eye 2" and "Re-cycle" (all 3 courtesy of the Pang Brothers). Japan is still making some good ones too with "Reincarnation", "One Missed Call 2", "Marebito" and "Premonition". HEY! where is "Ju-on 3"? Bottom line: "Apartment" is a must see; must buy! |

An APT Production!
|
Although it could be easy to think of APT as another "Ring and the Clone" type of film in its style, (well, somebody had to use that pun!) first and foremost I will say that this is a very worthy ghost movie and certainly recommended to fans of Ahn Byung Ki and Asian horror movie fans in general. Not the expected gem I was hoping for, but, if you liked ABK's other films, certainly get this one. "Phone" for me is still the best of his directed movies, and APT does have top drawer acting, pacing, lighting, style and excellent art production values and overall is a very well made film. There will be some talk about Grudge type sounds used in this film, but in this case I thought they were used in a clever meaningful way. Not merely used to create a scare. I think Ahn Byung Ki must have decided to play tounge in cheek with the Ring/Grudge style anyway with APT, as one character proves within the film (you will have to see it to find out!). Sadly, though, the film is a bit too predicatable in its final outcome (probably more so than "Cello"?) and the ending was a bit too blunt for me - if the script had more depth matching the excellent film making, acting etc., it would have made APT and excellent movie. I hope that Ahn Byung Ki ghost film number five exceeds this one, but this film did prove positive with me in certainly looking forward to another of his creativley styled ghost films! I certainly enjoyed this ghostly romp! |

Scared The Hell Outta Me...
|
Ever since I was really little I've loved being scared, but I found many Hollywood made horror movies just didn't do anything for me. Today I'm finding I'm becoming more and more attached to horror films made by the Japanese and Koreans... and sometimes even Chinese. Although it doesn't have an overly deepened plot the movie is really good, and the idea of what the director, writers and such had in mind really freaked me out; especially since I was watching it after dark, alone in my bedroom. The actors all do their parts really well. I just hope Hollywood doesn't decide to make a remake of it like they do with alot of Asian movies these days. I definately reccomend this to everyone that enjoys a good scare. So, if you fall into that catagory go add it to your cart right now. |

not a great nor compelling horror story, but there are some creepy parts. the dead bodies in the movie look scary too, not bad on the make up part. the lead actress's apartment is really nice actually...wouldn't mind living in one of those. |
