Reviews
A Tale of Two Sisters is a psychological horror that delves into the trauma and repressed guilt of Soo Mi, whose return home with her sister triggers eerie events tied to their cruel stepmother. As layers of memory, grief, and hallucination unfold, the film cleverly reveals how unresolved emotional wounds can distort reality. Despite a slightly underwhelming horror execution, the film’s psychological depth and powerful performances make it a haunting and thought-provoking experience.
