Elvis - Let me know what you think about the original... From what I understand, Mirrors takes the concept as opposed to doing an all-out remake. However, I am starting to adore Korean horror, so let me know if it's worth checking out.
I have seen the original lately & it was pretty good. Though somewhat disappointed with the final climax at the store but I love the last scene of the film. From the trailer of Aja's version it looks quite different. Probably Aja has done some extensive work with the story and now it seems that wouldn't go well.
