why does everybody have to hate this movie?
Okay, as a Singaporean, I'm by nature, defensive and extra protective, like a mother hen, of all things 'made in S'pore', and am naturally upset that this film had drawn quite a negative response from the audience despite it farin' well at the box office. I was pretty excited when I heard about Singapore going to have it's very first decent horror flick on the big screen, make on a reasonably impressive budget, and went ahead with the rest of the curious crowd to see it, which true to what it promised, to be a shocking and scary piece, I was intensely spooked most of the time. Despite it not being perfect, and havin' areas to work and improve on, it was consider being relatively well done for being a first attempt on a director whose genre of film making wasn't horror and having to apply the 'horror' concept to a very 'un-horror' setting such as Singapore. Do give it a chance and not be so negative about it. It seriously isn't that bad. In fact, its pretty good, and can be even much better if given more time to work on various issues. The acting wasn't exactly world class acting but everyone put in their best to look convincing and the effort was admirable, if nothing to gawk at. Do go see this film if U haven't, and do see it again if U have, for its worth the second go. :)
