    A Tale of Two Sisters This another movie I recommend a lot, but for good reason, it is positively nerve-wracking. A young girl comes home from being institutionalized, and is ill at ease with her father's new wife, the sense of tension builds even before anything creepy happens is second to none.

    Movie recommendation for tonight, The Quiet Family The debut movie from director Kim Jee-woon (A Tale of Two Sisters, I Saw The Devil) is this very dark comedy of errors about a family who open a guest house in the mountains, only for their first guest to die, so they... hide the body.

    Asked on stream if do movie recommendation threads, and I sure do! It's been a while though, and I've often done them for horror movies around Halloween time. But check out I Saw The Devil if you want a good bad time, South Korean revenge thriller from the same director as A Tale Of Two Sisters.

    Everyone should go watch The Quiet Family It's director Kim Jee-woon's (A Tale of Two Sisters, I Saw The Devil) first film, a dark comedy about a family who open a countryside guesthouse and when their first guest commits suicide, worried it'll ruin their reputation, decide to hide the body.

    Good example of this, Kim Jee-woon Phenomenal director, made some of the best movies of all time in my humble opinion, like for example A Tale of Two Sisters and I Saw The Devil, a top tier talent, and they had him direct the 2013 Schwarzenegger movie The Last Stand, which was okay, it was fine.

    This Deeply Unsettling Korean Horror Gem [A Tale of Two Sisters] Is Better Than Its American Remake [The Uninvited] in Every Way. > If there's one thing the horror genre is really good at, it's making remakes that don't live up to the original. There are so many that it's become a running joke across the medium; sure, every now and then there's an amazing, innovative remake like 2013's Evil Dead, but usually, these rehashings of classic plots only serve as weak copies that can't compete with…

    [Noroi - The Curse](https://imdb.adminforge.de/title/tt0930083) (2005, Japan) Supernatural first-person video documentary style POV, but with higher image quality than Blair Witch Project for example. No jump scares, just very creepy and unsettling. Slow burn, but good pacing IMHO. No weaknesses IMHO, hence on top of my list. Just a very unsettling and disturbing, almost real-feeling, horror movie. Also good: - A Tale of Two Sisters (2003, South Korea): less horror, more artistic, intelligent…
