APT.

There is everything here that we’ve learned to look forward to in our Asian horror movies. Sae-jin is one of the growing number of young urban professionals in Seoul who focuses on her work and has little sense of community. She lives in a modern apartment block, near to many but close to none. That is, until a suicidal woman accosts her in the subway and she is forced to question her lack of compassion. As she starts to take an interest in the apartment building opposite, she notices that the lights go off mysteriously at the same time every night and then the corpses start to appear. The Ring meets Rear Window in this highly intelligent film where monstrousness and the coldness of contemporary life go hand in hand. Based on a popular internet comic, and directed by Ahn Byung-ki, whose work in the genre includes Phone and Bunshinshaba, you’ll want to see this before Hollywood remakes it with some blonde woman in the main role.

If you ask me, this has got all the right ingredients and manages to mix them just right.
