[edit] Incorrect Plot Summary
I'm deleting the plot summary because it's wrong. I just watched the movie and tried to follow along with the plot summary, but it was impossible because the summary didn't follow the movie. It's pretty good for the first half or so, but then it diverges.
You're right, whoever wrote this summary has no idea what this movie was truly about. For the majority of this film, Sumi and her father were the only ones in the house. Suyeon and Eunjoo are made up by Sumi because she feels so much guilt that she let Suyeon die. She makes up all these hypothetical situations that get increasingly more extreme to try and delude herself into thinking that she is always going to "be there" for her sister. The last few of these delusions backfire on her, as she creates Eunjoo to be too realistic into reminding her that she is delusional. This film was not created for a one-time viewing. The pieces only come together at the end, unless you've got a watchful eye. Watch it a second, third time, and you'll realize that every scene has significance.

[edit] Perception vs. Reality
This movie is a surreal exploration of the divergance between perception and reality during the onset of mental illness. There really should be a section of the article that groups Soo-mi's perceptions logically with comments about which are more delusional and which are closer to reality. — Chris Capoccia T⁄C 19:37, August 31, 2005 (UTC)
[edit] The Folktale section
I can't comment on the accuracy of the story, but a lot could be done to correct its grammatical errors.
[edit] Requested move
The only reason why this was moved to (2003 film) was to make room for the remake. Since the remake is going to be a different title (The Uninvited) there's no need for this differentation.--CyberGhostface (talk) 15:00, 31 March 2008 (UTC)
