this movie be not really all that scary . sure it have a couple of moment where have you at the edge of the seat and but if just fail to bring you all the way over the edge . be a traditional asian horror movie in every way and this movie offer very little that haven not be see in other movie in the same genre . sure it provide adequate entertainment the first time you watch it and but this movie be not the kind you pick up to watch again a second time . the problem might be that there be numerous horror movie be pump out of asia and so they all struggle to stand out in the genre . apartment 1303 certainly fail to stand out . the acting and cast in the movie be alright and though some of the dialogue be a bit weak . the setting . well not overly scary and could have use some extra touch and but not a bottomscraper in any way though . if you want to be scar and have good thrill and you might want to pick up another title and a this one be just a lukewarm experience . you might want to go for title like ringu and phone and the eye and such title . if you be a native asian and you might just find the movie scary and but for westerner there be very little to scare u in this movie . i would recommend this movie for an early evening appetizer lead up for a good and scary horror movie follow after . let this be a lead up to something more scare in it wake and no need to bring out the pillow while watch this one though .
