A Tale of Two Sisters

Su-mi and Su-yeon return home after an extended illness and hospital stay. Things have not been the same since their mother passed away. Their return is welcomed by Eun-joo, their stepmother. It's evident that Su-mi, the older and stronger of the two, isn't afraid to speak her mind when it comes to their family troubles. Su-yeon is more timid and wary of their stepmother and looks to Su-mi for help. Continually picked on and harassed by their stepmother, the two have no choice but to endure the relationship for their father's sake. Su-mi promises Su-yeon that she will never let their stepmother beat them again. Unexplainable things start to occur at the house. Something has changed, no one knows what it is, but the sisters can feel it. On their first night back, Su-yeon hears someone running up the stairs, opening her door, and walking up to her bed. As soon as she pulls the covers over her head, they are pulled right off, yet no one is around. Could it be their stepmother trying to torment them? Or could it be that there's something more sinister at work, a supernatural force in the houses that wants to drive everyone away?...

@alerga SPOILERS her sister and mother died so she went insane. When she returns home she plays out a psycho-drama of protecting her sister from her mad stepmother- it's just her and her father in the house. At the same time she is haunted by the actual ghosts of her mother and sister. At the end her real stepmother comes home and the ghosts get revenge on her for allowing them to die just to spite su-mi and su-mi returns to the mental hospital.

[wwe3fancena]

how come i dont know about this movie?????

[915girl]

I'm kinda assuming that's because A Tale of two sisters is a better film than the ring.

And because American's are remaking almost all of the good Asian horror movies.

It's on YOUTUBE! Just type in Janghwa, Hongryeon 1. It has the whole film split into parts. It's a brilliant movie, one of my favourites! :) I felt sorry for su-yeon!

yeh, its more scary watching this and thinking what your own mind can do to you. How you can actually lose all sense of reality. Thats what I find scary in films, not blood and gore.

The movie has been played from the viewpoint of the elder sister Sumi, who created her own fantasy world after her sister's death. In her fantasy world, her sister still lives and only in the end of the movie shows the whole plot (how her sister died and how her father reacted).
