Superb ensemble. Choi Min-sik's casting alone already sets the tone for the movie. The other actors are also all already proven artisans so not much more to say.
Good, strong storytelling but the production value and the overall atmosphere including the sound engineering was what really sold it for me.
Usually ghost films are one or the other. Either paranormal with invisible spirits leaving the rest to imagination or showing the actual monsters for a more direct interaction with the characters. This movie was very interesting in the sense that they mixed the two and in a very clever way.
Also, very refreshing to learn about Asian/Korean and Buddhism influenced lores over the 'now almost cliche Western/Christian ones.
