Es ist ein strahlender Sommertag, als die Schwestern Su-mi und Su-yeon in ein abgelegenes Haus am See gebracht werden. Sie waren seit dem Tod ihrer Mutter in einer Heilanstalt und kehren nun zu ihrem Vater zurück. In der Eingangshalle wartet bereits die verhasste Stiefmutter. Su-mi, die Ältere, zeigt sich der Frau gegenüber offen feindselig, während Su-yeon geradezu ängstlich auf Abstand geht. Schon in der ersten Nacht gehen unheimliche Dinge in dem Haus vor sich, denn ein unbekanntes Wesen scheint im Verborgenen zu lauern. Diese Nacht ist aber nur der Anfang eines nicht endenden Albtraums. (Maxdome)

One of the better Korean horror dramas. It's a bit of a mind game, overwhelmed by a big pile of emotions. But as I always say, Koreans have their own filmmaking style, and it's not always a bullseye. I had seen the American version much earlier, and I found out about its connection to this film just a short while before the screening, so it wasn't such a big surprise for me. The remake was indeed easier to understand, the story was overall trivial and easier to digest, but I personally preferred the Korean version more. It was a big tangle, and Koreans intentionally like to do it this way. I have seen quite a lot of their productions, and it's been a while since I liked something like this. The only thing that bothered me there was probably the head of the family. I really didn't believe a word from that gray-haired dad.

This was a massive stress test for my habit of not turning off (apparently) good films because of an irrelevant feeling of boredom. Sometimes it pays off, sometimes it doesn’t. This time, unfortunately, I regretted it because A Tale of Two Sisters didn’t satisfy me in any aspect. I don’t mind intricate films, provided the plot is also intricate, what I don’t like is nonsense that pretends to be interesting with non-traditional and almost indecipherable narrative techniques. That’s not genius, that’s posing. Disappointment, I liked the bland American remake a lot more .
