A Tale Of Two Sisters: Deleted Scenes

After Su-mi opens her wardrobe and there are dozens of the same clothes, she hears Su-yeon screaming. So she goes to Su-yeons room. You already know this if you watched the film. The day that the accident happened, Su-mi didn’t go to Su-yeons room. Because of this Su-mi hears hallucinatory sounds. The screams. She gets obsessive. That’s why we’ve included this and the mysterious wardrobe. What’s wrong with the wardrobe? She keeps talking about the wardrobe. This is where it gets introduced but was too emphasized in this scene. It was overdone. That’s why it was deleted.  - Kim Ji woon

I thought that something like this was needed on tumblr. Here you go, movies from around the world. Many of them contain english subtitles or an english voiceover. 

I’ve always heard that foreign movies are 10 times scarier than American ones. You be the judge of that.

“I consider “Hansel and Gretel”(Korean) to be horror, just psychological horror. Either way that movie fucked me up.”

“"White: Curse of the Melody" scared the shit out of me. It wasn’t the typical Asian horror with long black hair and white night gown."
