Genre: Drama/Horror/Thriller
Directed by: Charles Guard, Thomas Guard

Music by: Christopher Young
Movie Releases: January 30, 2009
Following the succes of the 2003 Korean horror movie A Tale of Two Sisters, a Hollywood remake has been shot. But the remake is titled The Uninvited. The film is directed by Charles and Thomas Guard. It is starring Emily Browning, Arielle Kebbel
Elizabeth Banks, and David Strathairn. The movie should be released at the end of January 2009.
Judging from the trailer the movie looks rather appealing. It is a remake movie, but I didn't see the original Korean movie so I don't have special expectations for now. Shall wait and see if this horror flick is worth it.
At least the girls in the lead cast of the Uninvited are cute.
The upcoming Uninvited is indeed a remake of a South Korean psychological horror movie titled A tale of Two Sisters which was released in 2003. It was directed by Kim Ji-woon and is both the highest-grossing Korean horror film and the first to be screened in American theaters.
The plot of A Tale of Two Sisters is actually inspired by an old Korean folktale entitled "Janghwa Hongreyon-jon", which has been adapted to film several times.
A horror movie from Asia can sometimes be even damned scary: not only the movie is scary in itself but with the Asian faces and languages just you're lost in translation which adds up to freak you out even more!
For once I think I'll just watch the American remake movie... better for my heart to avoid the original Korean film! So for Uninvited ok, but for A Tale of Two Sisters, no thank you...
