Have you ever seen a horror film in which a character, against her better judgment, approaches a motionless body sitting in a chair facing the wall, then slowly turns it toward the camera? How about a horror film in which this happens more than once? How about three times?
At some point in “Shutter” you will probably lose count, along with your patience, but the film will keep right on going. It’ll put faces in bathroom mirrors, wake characters from awful dreams, make still photographs suddenly move and then — once again — turn that motionless body your way. If you’ve never seen one single horror film in your life, “Shutter,” a remake of a 2004 Thai film, might strike you as the “Citizen Kane” of its genre.
