* The immediate aftermath of Su-mi's [[spoiler: first]] nightmare - as she starts to calm down, she hears a noise, just barely audible, coming from the other side of the room. She looks, and, after a few seconds, spots a pale, long-haired woman slowly crawling on all fours across the floor, causing her to gasp in terror and start to hyperventilate. This, of course, attracts the attention of the ghost - who proceeds to [[MarionetteMotion suddenly stand up in a split second]] before advancing on Su-mi, who is now too terrified to move. The [[HellIsThatNoise utterly terrifying ambient score]] does ''not'' help.

* [[spoiler:The ghost emerging from the cupboard to get Eun-ju.]] Not to mention the entire [[NothingIsScarier build-up to that scene]]...
* The first nighttime scene in Su-yeon's bedroom. [[spoiler: Her door slowly creaks open of its own accord... she shrinks back in fear... and after a moment of tenseness, a hand suddenly grips around the edge of the door.]] Gaaaah.
* The scene where the wife of the girls' uncle starts having a fit. It is frightening enough the first time around, but, on a re-watch, if one believes the theory that [[spoiler: she was being possessed]], the scene takes on a very different light.

Deleting Natter/X Just X.


* Oh GOD this movie. To be fair, it falls under "it's a horror film, freaking you out is the point" but the particular way they do so... it's just... mean as hell. They first proceed to do some fairly tame JumpScare tricks and nightmare sequences, but it's par for the course. It ''is'' a horror film after all. Of course, it only ''fools'' you into thinking it's gonna be this tame the whole time. The cutoff point is the "dinner freak out" scene. From that point on, the entire rest of the movie suddenly takes a huge ramp in the scare factor, putting you on a psychological ride through hell. The scariest parts were the ones where nothing happened, and yet, and yet... daaaaaamn. The movie is also a MindScrew of epic proportions, so if you didn't understand it, you'll have to watch it all over again -- if you ''can.''

** There are tears in my eyes just thinking about seeing the movie about 4 years ago. The bedroom scene with the hand in the.... oh, NO. I do NOT get scared of whole movies. There are freaky and gross parts of movies, but I think I would cry if I ever had to watch "Two Sisters" again.
*** True story, happened to me. After watching that movie while laid up in a full-leg cast, finally coaxed self into uneasy sleep few hours later. Horrible, terrible nightmare and upon waking, decides that maybe some late-night Tom and Jerry might trigger enough laughter such as to resume normal human functions. Turn on TV, what do I find? That some terrible ungodly roommate decided to program our DVR to record Tale of Two Sisters (at four AM, 'cause why not) AND IT IS PLAYING RIGHT NOW. Yeah. No sleep. No sleep for days.
