Cinderella
A band of Korean girls get into plastic surgery because, let's face it, you're never too young. Only problem is after they come out from under the knife, their face feels odd, they see a creepy girl with long hair crawling on the ground, and they start dying. And the mother of one of these girls, who is the plastic surgeon for all of them, tells them it's all in their heads. Sounds like something's amiss, no? Something is indeed missing: suspense, drama, terror, and everything else that should go into a horror film. And, since it's an Asian horror film, the plot makes sense at first, but then becomes basically incoherent for the last half. "The Audition" addressed similar themes of beauty and objectification in Japanese society, and "The Audition" was a hundred times better. Just watch "The Audition."
