I have to tell you, if a movie can actually spook me and give me chills, I consider that an effective film. The eye does just that with and engaging story to follow. Although it is in Cantonese, I don't beleive a person would have to be fan of Asian cinema to appreciate it. I would completely recomend as a good ghost story.

The movie has a good plot and an excellent sound, that adds to its scariness. The direction is good and there is a lot of suspense. For a horror flick this is an excellent choice especially if you dont want blood and gore. Highly reccomended if you can tolerate the subtitles!!

This is really a truly an original erie, scray and also heartfelt movie from Asia. It's like living in a real freaky Twilight Zone.
