Phone

Pon
2002 / 104m - South Korea
Horror, Mystery
3.0*/5.0*
Phone poster

An old favorite that turned out to be a pretty decent but basic genre film. I've come to the point where quite a few of my rewatches end up that way, almost two decades of watching films can do that to someone's taste in films. Phone is not a bad film, but so many Asian horror films later, there's not that much that sets it apart.

Ghosts and past trauma, mixed with technology. Phone is a film that borrows a lot from Ringu, but gives it a more polished South Korean finish. It's pleasant genre fare with a few memorable moments and some scary scenes, but two decades later it's just one of many, with too few distinctive elements to call it a personal favorite.
