Warning: Spoilers
Ping goes to study music from Master Doung at his academy. They have a boy band with girls dancers. The master places a death curse on those that leave...or screw up...or think about leaving. He has special/holy Perng Mang drums. Cheng is the first player up and the drums take his life. Pai takes over the position. He is a good musician but has no feeling. He doesn't look good playing them. He is Pete Best when the master wants a Ringo. Meanwhile Ping goes next door to the off limits house and meets Tip, a woman who allows Ping to play her Perng Mang drums that she has laying around in her pond. After a few incidents at the academy, the Deputy wants to take over the band, consolidated with his band. He wants the special drums. It will be decided by a battle of the boy bands...not on MTV The film has a lot more plot than stated, Asian film are sometimes like that. The ending, i.e. why these drums are so sacred was clever, however the complexity of the plot dragged the film down. Yes, the drums were haunted. There were ghosts. There was killing and blood, yet it never felt like a horror film.

This Thai film had English subtitles.

Guide: 1 F-word. Implied sex scene. Rear nudity.
