What makes it different from others?

The greatest movie ever made..!

Blending excellent reporting and strong storytelling, this is a disturbing film truly stranger than fiction

The movie really just wants to entertain people.

This one starts with the old, clichéd premise of horror movies - tormented girl can see scary ghosts. You'd expect the regular, mediocre servings of Asian horror taking place after that. Not in "Inner Senses".Her psychiatrist, played by Leslie Cheung, doesn't believe in ghosts but is eager to help. Only problem is that he apparently has some psychological issues as well.To say more than that would be a crime. Suffice it to say that this is a wonderfully crafted movie, that is almost Lynch-ian in its unweaving. Are the ghosts real or just in our minds? Watch and decide.This movie deserves a second viewing and a lot more praise than it got. I would classify it as a psychological horror, but labels don't do this film justice. Don't expect much gore (thankfully) but there's tension and jumps in all the right places.This gets extra creepy points because Leslie Cheung actually killed himself a year later. In a way, this movie it is incredibly fitting as his last work - a great one.This is an above average Asian horror that challenges you to think.7/10.

Good horror film with a serious plot about people who cannot recover from the losses in their pasts. The film builds up very slowly to build character but also produces some genuinely creepy scenes in the third act. The subplot about the landlord (which also acts as a catalyst for the main character) is a little under-explored, which is a shame, but other than that it's a very accomplished film. More Dark Water than, say, Ju-on: The Grudge.Also Leslie Chungs last film before he threw himself out of a window...a little spooky considering some of the scenes in this film, which are similar.

Don't let the put downs deter you. Decide for yourself. This DVD is worth the patience it takes to watch. IF you like the Tomie series, Sixth Sense - etc. - then you will most likely be very pleased with this film. This is a Superb Ghost Story in the tradition of the above - and Ringu! I found it truly moving. It has some truly chilling moments! (The over-the-shoulder-apparition is a classic!) This is a Ten - for me.

I use a one word in the summary to describe this movie because frankly, it is. Within minutes of watching this movie I was entranced, seeing things that frankly, creeped me out. Not since the SIXTH SENSE has a movie like this gotten to me, and my last two horror movies from Hong Kong have both surpassed my expectations, and made me think twice about turning off any lights while watching it.
