Crap!

Getting really fed up with these silly Thai/Korean 'quirky-comedies'.
They are about as funny as having cancer.

It wasn't scary, replacing any chance of being slightly unnerving with dim-witted humour and wallowed in it's own drudge for far far FAR too long.

The beginning was ok but as soon as the 'haunting' starts anyone who's seen this kinda movie 1000 times before may as well just switch off. There's nothing new to see here.

Unfortunately there's sequels on the way. Surely the only way is up.

This is a genre movie. And it did make it for film festivals around the world. Even though thailand definitely have churned out many similar movies, then this one is still one of the better horrorcomedies to come from there. It does get repetitive and at times boring, but still holds up well over many of the other releases from Thailand in this genre.
And is also a good way of understanding a few things about how thais think.
