Innocence [Lucile Hadzihalilovic, 2004]

The film begins with the arrival of a girl at a boarding school - in a
coffin. Such a set-up could be the signal for 2 hours of tedious
pretentiousness. However, Hadzihalilovic somehow makes it convincing,
providing a quite imaginative and compelling study of the menacing
mystery lurking just on the periphery of the innocence of childhood.
The pace is slow, but with a mood of growing menace, as the time for
adulthood approaches like a circling wolf.

Definitely unusual!

Tell Me Something [Yoon-Hyun Chang, 1999]

This looks very impressive, and starts with suitably grisly opening
credits. However, the plot is poorly developed and has none of the
gripping logic that a first class horror of this kind needs.

Of some interest, but more for how it's shot than the storyline.
