It's always refreshing when an Asian horror movie is released that doesn't revolve around long haired black ghosts or tormented spirits, so when director and screenwriter Huh Jung made his debut with 2013's Hide and Seek, it came as a welcome addition to the genre. The hook was simple yet terrifying, posing the question of what if someone else was living in your property other than just you, but you had no idea? While it's not an idea that's never been used before, Kim Ki-duk's 2004 production 3 Iron notably used the same concept but with romantic trappings, the decision to use it as a basis for a horror movie was an undeniable stroke of genius.
