San chuen lo see

I bought this movie because the cover looked pretty scary. The worse thing is that the cover is the only thing scary about this movie...

This movie has everything you expect from a bad horror movie:

1) Weak Plot

The whole movie is about our hero's journey to find out the cause of the haunting. Unfortunately, none of it is making much sense to the point of lunacy.

2) Weak visual/audio impact

This is definitely not a psychological horror. It relies strictly on audio/visual impact to make you scare. Unfortunately, it is not really working. And what's with the long hair? Would movie please stop copying from the Ring already??? The face of the ghost, when they eventually show it, actually makes me want to laugh - that's how bad it is.

3) Weak acting

The whole irony of this is that Teacher Mo is supposed to be a drama instructor teaching how to act... I guess to talk is one thing, to do is another.

4) Cheap set

This whole thing feels like a home-made movie. I can certainly imagine my friends and I get together and produce something like this in a month.

The only saving grace may be the good looking Cissy... And no, there is no gratuitous naked scene that you will otherwise find in other cheap horror movie in the same class.

For those of you who are familiar with Chinese horror stories, you will no doubt already know that sometimes they hit the story right on the head. This is one of those. The plot is based on your basic angry ghost seeking revenge story. There are a few truely scary moments, but for the most part it is more a mystery story about the mysterious deaths of a group of people who have recently attempted to contact spirits. These people begin to get scared to death and commit suicide (and murder) while under the possesion of a "wicked Ghost". I wouldn't hunt thus movie down to own it, but if you should pass it as a good price, I believe it is worth the watching.

I agree with the previous comment. I bought it because of the cover too! This is just as cheap and dumb as horror can get. It was probably shot in one week and edited during the following two days. Just a terrible attempt to make some cash out of the Ring phenomenon. Guessed it worked on me...'cause I bought this stupid DVD!

Probably the worst movie in my over 200 DVD collection.
