Severely underrated
I compare Korean movies against A Tale Of Two Sisters, wich i think was excellent and it set my standard as far as Korean movies go.
So compared to that movie, i thought this movie was quite good, against what all the reviews say about it. The camera work was very nice, the story was simple but effective, the acting above average, and the ending was satisfying enough for me. For a low budget film, the special effects were nice, and the picture definetly has a look, and feel.
Acacia will stay in my head for a while, cause it gave me quite some scares, and chills. The hospital/birth scene is one of those things that will make the hairs on the back of your neck stand up.
It's hard to write this, and not spoil anything, so i'll just leave it at the fact that i quite enjoyed it, and am not sorry to have watched it all. On the contrary! Once again, it shows that asian kids, are nothing but trouble.
On the back of the DVD case, is a small summary of a review from eCritic.com, wich says: "Understated creeper of a ghost story."
I couldn't agree more.
