This Korean horror flick has to be one of the most beautiful and chilling tales I've ever enjoyed. It takes place at an art school and centers around four females. There's a teacher, a resident weirdo, the semi-heroine, and a girls who wakes up dead (yeah, that's right). The movie can't be summarized too much without revealing key plot elements, but I will say that girl who wakes up dead is best friend to the semi-heroine, and holds a questionable relationship with the female teacher. The resident weirdo, mostly, acts as a device to move the story along, and yet also throws the story in an eerie direction with her startling revelation.

How much is truth? How much is real? And what does this ghosts really want? All these questions and more make for a very tense and unnerving atmosphere that keeps you drawn until the very end.

Eerie, shocking, dramatic, beautiful; this movie is a work of art.
