2.5/4.0
It contains enough of Uekrongtham's mastery of emotionally resonant horror that fans of Asian horror will likely consider this a film to be seen. Go to Full Review

06/17/2013 at least the director had fun. See more 02/16/2012 This multi-lingual horror is based on an intriguing Thai custom of lying in a coffin to rid oneself of bad luck. Cancer-stricken Sue (Karen Mok) makes a miraculous recovery after doing so suffers hallucinations and her fiance is then killed in an accident... her investigation leads her to Chris (Ananda Everingham) who was also haunted after a coffin session. It's a neat premise for a film hampered by a disjointed narrative - the horror elements ramped up in the latter stages of the production, apparently - and whilst Ekachai is a solid director he does spoil things by doing a Pride And Glory; all blue, all the time. See more 11/12/2011 Interesting concept, a bit creepy. See more 02/11/2011 It wasn't that bad. Not really scary, but more sad. Its okay for a one time watch. See more 02/17/2010 First Thai movie I've watched. Silly by putting yourself in a coffin and live a different life. But there's a story in the movie that you will learn in the end that. See more 12/01/2009 La historia daba para mas, pero es un revoltijo, no le entiendes al principio y el final no te lo explican, lo tienes que deducir. See more Read all reviews
