"Voices" ("Someone Behind You") is a supernatural thriller that revolves around a young girl who fears her family may want her dead. The film has been highly praised for its realistic portrayal of a family with a dark secret, especially in the agonizing moments when the girl discovers that she will be sacrificed to relieve her family of its curse. The film was directed by Oh Ki-hwan, who is known for directing such Korean blockbusters as "Last Present" (2000) and "The Art of Seduction" (2005). This is Oh's first attempt at the horror genre.
