Regardless, it is still horror, and certainly "disturbing". I hope you weren't disappointed.
I'll have to agree; 'disturbing' is a better descriptive word than is 'spooky'. I'd even slip 'creepy' into the mix along with a tad 'macabre'..
I too don't fully understand what the filmmaker was trying to say, ending the film the way it ended. Subtitles or understanding Korean would have definitely enhanced the understanding [at least why the characters did certain things] of the film..
I felt the movie was going in one direction [and the images of the father at the end sort of supported my line of thought], but overall I just didn't 'get it'.. But I LOVED it!

Always creepy when you look
through the peephole and the
person on the other side looks
back at you... 
If nothing else, it left me with a sense of elation after experiencing a sense of dread for what was about to happen.. (Sorta what 'Tragedies' work to accomplish.)
Thank you Night457 for bringing this to FLM! Great little short; well worth 16 minutes of any members time!
I, personally, was
NOT disappointed.
(On a sidenote: Thank goodness for the KMdb.. How this intriguing little film has been left out of the imdb is a shame!)
kev.
