    Hi,

    Has anyone seen this masterpiece by Oxide Pang? It is in my opinion one of the best pyschological thrillers to come out of HK in a long while. The lead actress(Charlene Choi) gave a very compelling performance, the photography and CGI were used very effectively, and the sound fx were able to give the movie a very creepy feeling. There were plenty of twists and turns and re-twists and re-turns. I recommend that anyone who is a fan of psychological thrillers get this movie and get subtitles, you definitely won't be disappointed.

    I have no idea if this thread should be here or in the review forum, but I posted it here as this movie might get a little more exposure here.

    The bothers are Danny and Oxide Pang, this film was just by Oxide.

    Anyway, I haven't seen it, but I think the Pang brothers output is hit and miss. I loved the Eye, but Bangkok Haunted was absolutely awful. I'll definetly have to give this a look though.

    I'm acutually looking at the case as I type, debating if I want to watch it or Memonto Mori. God, I love sick days. Get to laze in bed and catch up on my DVD watching.

    Well Darko, please do tell me what you thought of it if/when you watched it. This was one of the best movies of this genre I've seen in a while.

    Oops, sorry, I'll edit that now.

    Had a look on play.com and they don't have it. There is another Oxide Pang film I'd like to see called Abnormal Beauty though.
