We thoroughly enjoyed this movie. In fact it's one of the most scariest Thai horror movies we can ever recommend. This is one of those movies where the end credits are even more interesting than the entire movie, not to say that the movie is shite, it is, as we mentioned, one of the best. The movie starts off with May, a happy-go-lucky, struggling, acting student, trying to make ends meet by appearing as extras in game shows, movies and such. Not long she got noticed by the local detective who pays her to reenact murder scenes committed by real life murders. All is good as she finally gains recognition as the victim of the murder scenes.
But her big break came when she was proposed to reenact a murder scene of a former Miss Thailand. As expected, she started seeing visions and apparitions connected to the murder. Now, the movie throws a curve ball and the whole story line turns 360 degrees. There are 2 major twist in the movie. We will not risk revealing much, but most viewers will feel turned off by the sudden change in direction of the movie. But nevertheless, we feel that the twist will not affect the scares and the tense atmosphere of the movie too much.
Why we agreed that this movie is one of the best Thai horror because of the clever use of silence and atmospheric tension. The worse is when they started introducing traditional Thai chimes and jingles used in traditional thai dances during some of the more intense scenes. It really adds to the whole feel of an extremely well-thought horror movie. One of the scenes that really send chills down our spine, (and we are 2 really hardcore horror fans who don't jump easily) is the editing room scene and the incoming dancing apparition. Well, we can reveal this to you and you will still feel it when watching it, yes, we are that confident the movie is scary. We were freaking the hell out when the chimes started resonating in the entire cinema. It really feels as though the sound is coming beside you.
Viewers best stayed on till the end of the credits, where the actual movie production team manages to capture footages of apparitions in various locations of the shoot. Fake or not, we couldn't tell, but we rather not discuss about it as not to spoil the illusion. As mentioned earlier, the best part of the movie is the credits. Let it roll with the speakers on loud. We guaran-damn-tee you will be freaked out. Download here
