If you enjoy a good thriller/horror you will enjoy Premonition. As spellbinding as "The Eye" by the Pang bros. Premonition has that sense of mystery that many horror films are missing nowadays. The movie starts out with a man getting in a horrible accident upon which his daughter dies and his wife leaves him, from that point his life is being haunted by a presence that makes him relive the tragedy endlessly. Not only is his captured by the ghost of his past he is being tortured in the presence by recieving premonitive paper which predicts mass deaths, tragedies and murder, none which are preventable as he finds out, but what happens when he is given a second chance to save her daughter? Is it even possible? I love this movie's twists and turns they enthrall you, never knowing what will happen next.Who could resist? I couldn't so I bought it too add to my foreign horror collection and if your a fan of j-horror this is a must!

Best of the J-Horror Genre
) Ok, so I watched over 50 Asian Horror movies in the last 9 months. This one is one of only 3 that I kept in my DVD collection having sold the rest. (The other 2 being Audition by Miake and Infection). What makes this movie great? Hitchcock atmosphere, combined with an intricacy of a David Lynch script, makes the viewer engaged throughout. But what really makes this movie standout, is that it will leave you talking for hours afterwards, trying to figure out exactly what happened and who was who in the movie. The twists and turns are many and has the feeling of Memento. As with all J-Horror genre movies, the pacing is a little slow for American audiences, but it gives just enough time for you to figure out the story. Oh and there is a Moral in the end, kind of like w/the Matrix movies where one is left wondering about the questions and complexities of life. (BTW skip the Sandra Bullock remake of 2 years later--that one is an uncomprehensible mess)
