    Wow! I couldn't tell if this was a horror/monster/ comedy/relationship movie because it was so bad at representing any of those themes. Two hours of my life I'll never get back.

    The movie simply sucked. The dubbed english was bad. The movie was long, not scary, stupid and really not that funny. It's like the emperor who has no clothes. Is everybody just afraid to say the movie was horrible. Dusty formaldehyde bottles, escaping from the police 10 times, sketchy scenes, bad special effects, do I need to keep going. What a waste of 2 hours.

    A great monster movie with a good storyline. I adore Asian cinema, and this movie was no exception.

    I thought it was a very interesting movie, and i wish i knew more about the Korean culture and society, to better appreciate this movie. Unfortunately all my friends hated it and to this day still rib me for making them watch it! It was pretty long and some parts made no sense to us. Guess i'll only invite them to watch mainstream movies, sigh.

    Didn't find it to be a horror but like a comedy. It’s a rental

    This was totally different kind of monster movie. If you come to theatre expected to be just scared by creatures, its not for you. although it has great monster movie elements in it, this is really a story about a family, and satire on Korean society .It has good laughs, and drama. generally it was really fun movie, that`s worth watching. it felt fresh after, same old hollywood monster movies.
