Like a lot of the other reviewers, I’m a vast fan of Asian apprehension of all kinds–I had overlooked this modest tiny film until now, but it was reasonably sharp and, despite the occasional silliness, has a cohesive location and some righteous effects. (There’s a very brief moment when the shadow of a passing coffin falls over a young woman’s face, which then contorts into the most frightening expression I’ve ever seen. I don’t know if it was CGI or not, but it’s *really* creepy.)

It’s not exactly non-stop awe and the young heroine’s cluelessness occasionally gets irritating, but I peaceful found it preferable to some of the earlier j- and k-horror movies that suffer from disjointed plots and ridiculous inconsistencies. Stylistically, it’s considerable closer to the Pang brothers’ Study movies.
This is a film that was produced in Singapore, where my inital belief, that this film objective wanted to capitalise on the novel unstoppable trip of terror films that seem to follow from the asian countries. Add to that a title that seems even more tacky… I wasn’t expecting mighty… But i was indeed in for a shock…..

Space is such that money is urgently required to do her ill brother attend home.
She is employed by an elderly couple, Mr and Mrs Teo who have a mentally-handicapped son Ah Soon. The relationship between all of them is grand, and all seems to go well.
In chinese mythology, the 7th month of the Lunar Calendar is widely considered the Hungry Ghost festival – when the gates of hell swing launch and for 30 days, the lifeless slide among the living. There are some rules during these months that are praticsed during these months amoung most… of which include – not to turn your head when some1 taps or calls your name over the shoulder… Lot of other rules are also mentioned, and most of these have been brushed off as Aged wives sage…
The maid (Alessandra De Rossi) brushes them off, and unfortuantely, she gets entangled into the ghostly world….
The acting is decent, with my hat going out to Alessandra De Rossi who makes her performance very believable. But what makes this movie a regular scarefest is the fact that the director is trying too hard to alarm us that the scares all seem too rehearshed. This film has a very decent premise, and the acting an’t too awful… But i would suggest a rental for all those fervent, before committing a assume, as this is a film for only the acquired taste.
Dvd wise, Tartan issues the regular stuff-along with Mandarin Dolby Digital 5.1 and DTS 5.1 Surround tracks with a few trailers of it’s upcoming movie selections – English subtitles will be available….
******** I have honest recieved word that the dvd presentation has a very serious predicament with it. For some reason Tartan has tried to stretch what appears to be a 1.85:1 ratio into about a 2.35:1. Also the image is non-anamorphic. For this alone…. i suggest you skip the release!!!
