  韓國本年度優異電影代表作,國際各大影展一鳴驚人!
  一段莫失莫忘的心跳回憶!

  曾經和妳這樣親近,今日,可會記起我?

  高中女生明雅上學時撿獲一本紅色封面的日記,日記原來屬於兩名十七歲少女。她們都是明雅的學姐,但其中一人卻已自殺身亡。明雅翻閱日記,慢慢進入了死者的世界,發現兩名少女之間的不尋常關係,感受到身處在一個以男性為主導的社會的巨大壓力。逐漸地,死去的少女的幽魂彷彿纏繞著明雅不肯離去……


  Min-ah finds a strange diary, capable of arousing hallucinations, kept by two of her senior fellow-students who seem to have an unusually close bond. But one of them, for no obvious reason, suddenly kills herself, and the entire school is shocked and depressed. Min-ah, however, starts to feel different. It's almost as if she somehow is possessed by the dead girl... A ghostly lesbian triangle in which the only real villain-surprise! is a man.

Remember death? Forget this film. Customer Review Rated Bad 4 - 4 out of 10
Muddled and mediocre Korean supernatural soaper shows some technical and compositional finesse but is ruined by a nearly incoherent and unrewarding script (and one of the shrillest casts ever). Like some bastard child of an indie sapphic coming of age tale and a Sixth Sense style atmospheric horror flick, Memento Mori starts out on a promising note but soon falls apart to the point where a prop, an elaborate diary/scrapbook belonging to one of the film’s tragic heroines, is the most compelling thing on the screen. Die hard Asian genre fans may want to check it out but will likely be disappointed by it’s art house pretension, afterschool special melodrama and clumsily, sometimes laughably, executed chills.

The story, told with the aid of frequent, and often confusing, flashbacks (it’s only similarity with the Christopher Nolan memory-noir Memento), focuses on one girls obsessive love for another and a third girl's discovery of the second girl's diary. After an eternity of pointless set up at the bizarre high school where the film takes place, the film still waits until the last few minutes to decide what direction to go in; it chooses horror and proceeds to waste everyone’s time again until the credits finally roll.

Memento Mori is subpar as art house drama, school drama, lesbian romance, suspense film and horror movie. One can only assume it’s art house elements are what have led to it’s gaining a stateside release while dozens of far more effective Korean and Japanese genre efforts languish unreleased.

A Sad and spooky film Customer Review Rated Bad 10 - 10 out of 10
I bought this film and i must say that I was very impressed...it was very psychological and very sad. It is a tale of love and loss and one trying to accept oneself when you go against the norm...i highly reccomend it
