After reaching the top of the box office last year with the romantic comedy
hit "My Tutor Friend", actress Kim Ha-neul got a frostier reception earlier this
year from audiences with the ice thriller "Ice Rain". Kim now returns to the
screen with "Ryung (Dead Friend)", one of a handful of teenage horror tales
to hit theaters this summer.

"Dead Friend" is a bit off the beaten path for an actress who is usually found
in romantic roles in comedies and dramas. Kim stars as Ji-won, a college
student who suffers from amnesia; she can't remember anything about her
past, and frightening dreams and a vague association to water are all that
remain of her identity. Gradually, she discovers that something happened to
her in high school, which becomes clearer as members of the high school
clique she supposedly hung out with wind up dead.

The film looks like it could have been the most recent installment
of "Yogogwedam (Whispering Corridor)", a popular series of horror films that
takes place in high school, and in many ways it aims for the same teen
audience. In trying to stay within the "12-and-over" rating, the film remains
fairly tame in its depiction of its horror, giving only hints at what happens to
the victims -with the usual evil eyes and high-pitched screams - and
leaving the audience to fill in the gruesome details.

There's not a lot in "Dead Friend" that hasn't been done before. The eerie,
gothic quality of Kim's house, which she shares with her alcoholic,
psychotic mother, is also reminiscent of "A Tale of Two Sisters", but without
the same evocative sensuality. The best thing about the film in fact is Kim,
who does an apt job playing what amounts to a split personality when her
new angelic self discovers her evil high-school side.
