I wasn't expecting a lot from this film, considering the comments (or lack thereof) that I had read. I love Asian films and since this is a Thai movie, I thought I'd give it a chance. I was very surprised and pleased on viewing the film. It's a classic ghost story, the type where the ghost(s) needs the help of a living person(s) to finish something left undone. The story and special effects were top notch. If you are a fan of Asian cinema, or ghost stories in particular you can't go wrong with this film.

Thai movies haven't been to well received in the West (except for the recent Ong-Bak action films), but this film along with Shutter are definitely two very good Thai horror films that you should check out.

Thai cinema blends spirituality, folklore, and experimental techniques, producing films that balance mystical introspection with popular entertainment. It stands out in Southeast Asia for its inventiveness and range, spanning from lyrical slow cinema to inventive genre-blending films that seamlessly weave in horror, romance, and social critique with unique narrative styles rooted in Thai tradition.
