# The Uninvited (2009)

2009 · 87 min · Drama, Horror, Mystery · Germany, United States, Canada


## Synopsis

The Uninvited is a 2009 psychological horror film directed by the Guard Brothers and starring Emily Browning, Elizabeth Banks, Arielle Kebbel, and David Strathairn. It is a remake of the 2003 South Korean horror film A Tale of Two Sisters, which is in turn one of several film adaptations of the Korean folk tale Janghwa Hongryeon jeon. The film was released by Paramount Pictures in the United States and Canada on January 30, 2009 and in Germany on May 28, 2009, grossed $42.7 million, and received mixed-to-negative reviews from critics, with the Rotten Tomatoes' critical consensus stating that it "suffers from predictable plot twists", but called it "moody and reasonably involving". The film is an international co-production between the United States, Canada and Germany.
