Hung bou yit sin ji Dai tao gwai ying

I'd consider myself a pretty jaded horror fan. I almost never get frightened or creeped out by a horror movie these days. Despite being hailed as one of the scariest films of all time, Ring didn't frighten me much but I was impressed enough by it to start hunting down more Asian horror movies.

I had read one or two good but vague things about Horror Hotline so when I saw a copy I pounced on it and watched it at 2 in the morning.

It made my hair stand on end.

Literally.

The directors responsible for the bilge that passes for horror coming out of Hollywood these days should be made to watch Horror Hotline and hang their heads in shame. Any horror fan who likes dark, mature, serious, eerie horror needs a copy of this film.
