Bewertung von adamiani
Let me preface by saying that I'm not really familiar with the Asian horror genre, and I can't tell you if the long-haired-ghost routine is, by now, trite and derivative. I can tell you Arang is a pretty movie with well done visuals. It also had a number of solid "jump" moments-- a scene near the beginning where the ghost appears only on film during a wedding is memorable, as is a still image of the bride twisting into a wicked, inhuman grin. I was amused by the visual imagery of each supernatural murder, if not genuinely frightened.
The movie is interesting because it represents a fusion of two genres: cop drama and ghost-horror. It seems like such a natural match, I was astonished that I hadn't seen it on film previously. A ghost is killing people, the cops are trying to solve the murders, and in the process discovering the connection between the killings and the reasons the ghost cannot rest. The two genres tie together with an amusing twist 3/4 of the way through that re-contextualizes the relationship between the two genres to each other.
Arang is a competently executed piece of genre fiction; it isn't groundbreaking, but it is entertaining, and I'm glad to have seen it.
