Review – Shutter

Once again Asian ghosts show up in a Hollywood production. Actually, if you like this sort of thing, this one isn’t too bad. A fashion photographer and his wife start to notice spooky images showing up in their photos. Eventually the phantom blurs resolve themselves into the ghost of a woman wronged by hubby on a previous trip to Japan. I liked the unusually downbeat ending. Beyond that, however, this only proves once again that while Asian ghosts don’t pack as much in the violence department, no vengeful spirits in the world can match them for sheer dogged determination. Mildly amusing
