My friend Roy and I were chatting about horror movies on some message boards we frequent, and he listed out some of his favorites, including a movie called A Tale of Two Sisters. What he said intrigued me, so I went to add it to my Netflix queue. A quick search yielded two results. The first was a 2004 Korean horror film that was obviously what he was talking about (and it had a pretty good rating too). The other one was a 1989 film described thusly:
Narrated by Charlie Sheen, Tale of Two Sisters is a dreamlike, seductive vision based on Sheen’s poetry.
Say no more. This film sounds much more horrific than anything I’ve been watching recently.
I’m fighting the urge to talk about the movie, because I hate spoiling things for people. =D
One thing I can say, without spoiling: it’s a beautiful film- some of the shots are just really, really well structured, and there’s an interesting use of color and pattern.
I don’t care how well structured the shots are or how great the color scheme is – I’m not watching a movie based on Charlie Sheen’s poetry.
HA!
That’s fair. I guess you’ll have to settle for the Korean one, then. Heh.
