Classic Korean Cinema presents A Tale of Two Sisters (Jang-hwa, Hong-ryun)
Something strange is happening when Su-mi and her younger sister Su-yeon come home to their father’s large and somewhat foreboding house after a stay in the hospital. Their dad is taciturn and burdened. Their step-mother, Eun-joo, greets them with forced enthusiasm and more than a little sense of irritation. This is nothing compared to what happens when bedtime rolls around. Meanwhile, Eun-joo goes from pre-hysterical to cruel. Then things get really weird. A ghostly young woman is hiding under a kitchen cabinet; a terrifying ghoul visits So-mi’s bedroom...
