Ring Virus director Kim Dong-bin returns to the director's chair for this terrifying tale concerning a newly hired railroad attendant who becomes convinced that the train she's working on is haunted. Mi-sun's first assignment as a railroad attendant is an overnight trip across Korea, and as the passengers begin to board the train she can't seem to shake a deep-rooted feeling of uneasiness. Sixteen years previously, the same train Mi-sun is working on was involved in a horrific accident in which 100 lives were claimed, and now the souls of the dead have grown restless. As Mi-sun's dark visions become increasingly vivid, the railroad cars seems to take on a will of its own and the truth about her father - the conductor who was guiding the train on that fateful day - gradually begins to emerge. ~ Jason Buchanan, All Movie Guide

South Korean filmmaker Yun Jae-yeon directs the thriller Yeogo Goedam 3: Yeowoo Gyedan (Wishing Stairs), the third in a series of horrific tales set in all-girl schools (the other two being Whispering Corridors and Memento Mori). The story involves several teenage ballet students at a remote boarding school for fine arts. The staircase leading up to their dormitory has 28 stairs. Supposedly, a certain spirit will grant your wish if the 29th step appears. Wealthy and outgoing Kim So-heui (Park Han-byeol) is best friends with the more reserved Yun Jin-seong (Song Ji-hyo). Right before an important competition, someone puts glass shards into So-heui's ballet shoes and she later dies. After that, many other frightening events start to happen at the school. ~ Andrea LeVasseur, All Movie Guide
