Inner Senses (2002)
6/10
Great start! Bad Finish...
18 November 2004
Inner Senses is a solid Chinese horror for those who are die-hard fans of the genre. It has a great soundtrack, a good cast (of people I've never heard of) and an impressive director style. The opening half hour of this movie looks promising; a movie that is truly eerie and is definitely worth a watch. It starts out with some very creepy scares. Past that point, the movie remains pretty eerie and makes you think "oh I think that tense music means a ghost is coming" or "I think I saw the shadow of the ghost in the corner!" but no, it was probably a cameraman. Nothing happens for about an hour. Topped with a confusing ending, the movie falls flat. If you want to see some great Asian horror, watch The Eye, Ju-on The Grudge, or Ringu first, then move on to this. Personally I think the first half-hour makes the latter 70 minutes of dead-time (no pun intended) worthwhile, but there definitely are better alternatives out there.
