Load of crap !!

This was the dullest, most mind-numbing waste of 95 minutes ever, not to mention the 2.50 I spent at Kim's checking it out. I'd list everything that bugged me about the movie, but my brain's in some other mental universe dancing with magical pink ponies and puffing on a joint, so suffice to say it was the demonstrable lack of even a smidgen of either intelligence or originality that did it in. Gaaaad .....

Oh, and that joke of a lead actor was the half-eaten worm in the mushy, rotting apple.

Yeah, it was pretty dull and cruddy as a film. THE EYE and many other Asian horror films are much better than this muddled mess.

One must disagree. Very atmospheric.

[–] MartinHafer 17 years ago

Oh, I agree that the atmosphere was great--nearly perfect. It was the story that came up so short.

quite boring

[–] sillyspaghetti 16 years ago

I got about half-way through and then gave up. It was boring and mindlessly sick. One of the worst pieces of crud I've ever witnessed.

I agree! I am disappointed with myself as I had to just fast forward to the end as it dragged on and on and was boring me to tears. I really wish I had picked a better movie.

Me too! In spite of the fact that there were a few scenes that creeped me out, I ended up washing dishes for the last 20 minutes with my back mostly to the tv. No, I don't speak Mandarin (I think that's the language it was in?).

They're coming to get you, Barbara!

Agreed.

And I was taken in by the (misleading) quote on the dvd box cover:

"Among the spookiest ever seen in Asian horror" (KFC Cinema)

Two for flinching!
