Dom Nickson Spoiler Alert! This is a pretty interesting story about a guy who takes pictures and a ghost is stalking him. It is so intense you will not get enough of it! This is one of the best non-American horror movies I have ever seen! It is pretty scary seeing as how a ghost in a photograph can be the most scariest thing to think about. It is really a masterpiece and deserves a higher rating then it has! I mean even though you have to read text I promise you will love it! The whole thing is a build up toward the awesome climax! It really makes you realize how gifted these types of ghost movies are from different countries! First it was The Ring now this! Overall I give it a 9 out of 10 because everything is just perfect!

richieandsam SHUTTERI had never heard of this before, but i read the synopsis on the TV and it just sounded good.The movie is about a newly married couple who move to Japan. They have an accident and run over a girl, but they can't find a body when they regain consciousness. Then after that they start seeing her ghostly image in the photos that they take.For a psychological horror it wasn't scary. There were a few jump scares that were average. They made my girlfriend jump, but I unfortunately saw them coming a mile off. It is just a shame that this was not scary. But then I have never been scared by a horror. I wish I was... I think I would enjoy them more if I felt the fear. Instead I just find them entertaining.The film stars Joshua Jackson, Rachael Taylor & Megumi Okina. The acting was alright... I liked the Megumi. She was spooky and intense.The effects were good... when she got run over it was gruesome and really well done. Also, there were some scenes later in the film where she starts haunting them where it was so well put together it didn't look too fake. I liked it.I will give this film 7 out of 10.It was good, but a little predictable. I would consider this more of a thriller rather than a horror.For more reviews, please check out my Facebook page:https://www.facebook.com/pages/Ordinary-Person-Movie- Reviews/456572047728204?ref=hl

DustinRahksi I have not seen the original, so I can't compare the two films. From what I have read on this site, the remake is virtually the same to the original. My biggest complaint was that Megumi wasn't scary at all, she just looks like a normal girl, lets compare her to Kayako from The Grudge, Kayako looks frightening and her classic vocals will haunt you, but Magumi doesn't offer anything scary, all she wants to do is hang around Ben. The acting was bland, much like the script, but thats to be expected. I thought a film like this would have a great atmosphere, but no, they dropped the ball big time. And once again the ghost just wants revenge and then it's done, how's that scary, I prefer the idea of a ghost being a curse and will kill anyone it pleases, thats scary. I guess what happened to Magumi was somewhat disturbing, she was a timid girl and didn't deserve what she got. Now I would bet money that the original was the film I should have watched, because this one wreaks of being designed for American audiences. Give it a watch if you want, don't expect anything good though.

Lynton Clamp Having watched the original the day before, I was intrigued to see how it had been adapted to a different audience.I was sorely disappointed. Maybe that is an understatement...They missed the unbelievable weave of the story and turned this into a disjointed hack.Ironically a movie involving a photographer was given cinematography like this. The original has so much in the way of great cinematography that it is sometimes distracting.Not only did they miss all the brilliance of the original, they even took the story to Japan. If I was involved in any way with the original I would be incensed.I would strongly recommend that anyone thinking of watching this get the original rather.Shame on the producers of this drivel. Shame on me for watching this till the end in the hope that it would somehow get better.
