I have to say no, for the same reasons that both sides have argued. Oldboy has too many other elements from other genres to classify it as just one. It's a suspenseful mystery, with murder and revenge, it's a twisted love story that pushes the will of one man. It was a great movie, that IMO, was more than a horror movie.
