4/5

Proof that there still might be a few scares left in the played out Asian Girl Ghost film subgenre.

Shunning random carnage, this horror carries you with it to the final twist.

Competently handled, decently acted and contains a couple of twists in the final reel that may give you a jolt.

Familiar though it may be, the film is well made and contains more than its fair share of supremely creepy moments, plus there’s a clever twist near the end that you really won’t see coming.

If some of the shocks come off feeling as dated as last summer’s Polaroids, it’s a small price to play for a picture that manages to be scary and unsettling without resorting to cheap thrills and gore.

This reasonable Thai horror flick can't decide when and how its disgruntled wraith - female, as usual - is allowed to manifest herself.

There's some scare-voltage here, and some cliches.

The first-time directors, Parkpoom Wongpoom and Banjong Pisanthanakun, might not have names that roll off the tongue, but they have a way of getting noticed.

Don't let the over-familiar nature of the plot fool you. This Asian horror thriller rises above its flaws to deliver a tightly constructed, affecting, and downright terrifying ride.

Works best if you don't know where it's heading.

The jury is out on whether we need another J-horror scare story, but it’s not an open-and-shut case. And with the re-make in the works, the file remains open.

If you’ve seen Ring, Ju-On or Dark Water you should bring along your own scare ticksheet, but a last page show of heart makes Shutter a sobering cut above the rest.

a tale of guilt, revenge and twisted love, set in a world that, for all its sanitised modernity, still remains haunted by fears that are primal and timeless.

Un buen ejemplo de terror asiático con algunos sobresaltos pero demasiado parecido a otros ya vistos.
