thats what i was wondering at first ...
I figured a dead girl looking for revenge must be a popular theme culturally .. but then i see the same thing in the Korean films ..
I know there is some simularity in the japanese and korean cultures .. they seem to be compatable ... but then i see Stutter.. a Thai film ...

I dont think all eastern countries are that culturally simular are they ? maybe so, i dont know ...

but its not just the girl with wet hair, freaky looking, crazy moving limbs akimbo visual .. there are other devices being used and reused.

the ghost is visible in reflections one second (mirrors/windows) and then they dissapear .. only to appear visually seconds later ..
This is in every single film !

They can be captured on film or security cameras ...

The funny thing is that most of these things the intended victim is completely unaware of .. its for the viewers benefit only. So the ghosts are fucking with us the audience ??

I understand that the filmmaker is making us jump and yell for fun .. but after the 4th or 5th movie doing the same damn thing its wearing thin ..

and thats not a cultural thing ...
