Plot: At the age of two Mann went blind. Eighteen years later, a new and risky corneal transplant operation restores her vision; but a series of inexplicable events lead her to believe there is more than meets the eye to her new-found gift of sight. Mysterious black-clad figures seem to foreshadow sudden deaths, and horribly disfigured denizens haunt her everyday existence. Unable to define her own identity, she comes to understand that whenever she looks into a mirror she doesn't see herself but instead she sees another woman; Ling, the original owner of the corneas.

These nightmarish visions are driving Mann insane. Desperate to uncover the truth, Mann visits Ling's old village in Northern Thailand. There she discovers that Ling was clairvoyant, but Ling's inability to save the villagers from a fire that she predicted sent her into a deep depression. Overcome with sorrow and regret, she ultimately committed suicide. Now it seems that Mann has inherited Ling's fate and the misery that comes with the ability to see more than one wants to see.

Just as she is about to leave Thailand, the black-clad harbingers of death return, only this time there are hundreds of them. Tragedy is about to strike again and only Mann can stop it. Is her fate predetermined or does she have the courage and

external linkOverall this is a well-acted and made film that manages to satisfy and disappoint at the same time - it's a good premise, it's all around competent but like I said before, it not as suspenseful as I'd of liked. Still, I recommend you see it as it's a worthwhile timewaster... 2.5/4


external linkWell directed, and well acted, and IMPOSSIBLE to do an American remake off makes this a flawless film! YES you heard me right! This is according to me 100% flawless. 5/5
--AnthroFred (Bloody-Disgusting.com)

external linkNow one of my favorite movies. If you liked Ring then I recommend you check into this film. Good scares; freaky ghosts.
--FrighT MasteR (UHM)

external linkThis smolderingly tense horror from the brilliant minds of the Hong Kong born Pang brothers is yet another fine example of a film ripe for western picking. 9/10

external linkMy favourite movie of all time, this doesn’t get slower towards the end, this gets scarier and scarier for every second you watch it. Be aware of that this might give you nightmares for the rest of your life though. Never have I seen such a scary movie before, this is one of those movies that you watch about 15 times before laying it to rest. 5/5
--AnthroFred (SlasherPool)
