And yet another Asian horror remake, along the lines of “The Ring“, “The Grudge” and “Shutter“; however, I enjoyed this one, based on the original “A Tale of Two Sisters.” Espousing the prototypical psychological thriller genre, the movie revolves around Anna (Emily Browning) who returns home to her father (David Strathairn), her sister Alex (Arielle Kebbel), and soon-to-be evil stepmother (Elizabeth Banks) following a stint in a mental hospital after a suicide attempt following the death of her mother. Having not seen the original, I can only offer my opinion on this film. Ghosts, flashbacks, murders, and the ever-imposing persona of Banks’ character combined to raise this film well above my original expectations. And I jumped…I like that! Oh, and watch closely, listen closely, ignore the minor plot holes, and enjoy the ride.
