A Tale of Two Sisters (2003) - 장화, 홍련

                                                 

" A Tale of Two Sisters (장화, 홍련 Janghwa, Hongryeon literally 'Rose Flower, Red Lotus') is a 2003 South Korean psychological horror film. It was directed by Kim Ji-Woon and is both the highest-grossing Korean horror film and the first to be screened in American theatres. The film is inspired by a Joseon Dynasty folktale entitled "Janghwa Hongreyon-jon", which has been adapted to film several times. An American remake was scheduled to begin production in 2004 and, after being delayed, is now back in development with preliminary casting announced." - Wikipedia This movie is excellent. It's soaked in dread and insanity. The colors are very rich--lots of baroque and creepy wallpaper. Great acting, too. Sad. I highly recommend. I learned how to say, "What?" = "Mo?" and "Fine" = "G/Keuh-R/Dae" Made by
