I got this movie for Christmas, I watched it yesterday, and sold it today.
The DVD cover tells "she is fascinated by death, but she doesn't know that death is looking at her".. Soundslike a cheap B-movie, isn't it? Well, it isn't far from truth!
I've seen quite a few Asian films and I can tell this one isn't really interesting. I was expecting more than a poor ready-made thriller like this. The plot takes hours to evolve, but this could be worth(remember Audition...), if the end wasn't so expected.
O.Pang drowns his story under thousand of cheap looking flashy effects while the bored viewer just wonder when he will decide to give it a little bit of tension. The tension comes, at last! to show what?
**SPOILER**
An over exploited pseudo snuff ending with a final revelation that is worth scooby Doo's explanations!
**SPOILER**
I'm not usually specially aware of the music during a film, but this time, the music is so shifted compared to the action that the final result is more comic than anything else. I would just notice a really nice photography and some interesting elements (costumes, lighting) but nothing extraordinary.
Altogether, it is an already seen film maybe able to give the 50+ housewife a little bit of interest. If you aren't familiar with thrillers, try another one, if you are, you don't need to see this one.
