Comment:

Soundtrack/tribute mix to the 2003 Korean horror film A Tale of Two Sisters, IMHO one of the finest psychological horror stories ever committed to celluloid. Those familiar with the movie should recognize songs representing various ch@racters, plot points, and themes presented roughly in chronological order. The Mediaevel Baebes' discordant How Death Comes represents the disturbing dinner party scene. After that, things start going downhill. Tracks 1, 5, and 15 don't exactly fit the somber mood of the movie, but I thought they work well to add some levity to the mix. And fans of the film should no doubt get the literal "skeleton in the closet" references.
