THE VANISHED is the South Korean remake of the 2012 Spanish thriller THE BODY and watching it you wonder why they bothered. It sticks so close to the plot of the original movie that it doesn't really have an awful lot to say for itself, which is a pity. I wasn't a big fan of the original movie in the first place, finding it quite average, and so it goes here. The film is well made and acted as always, but I just found the storyline dragged out too much, and by the time of the closing twists I found the whole thing rather unbelievable.
