Viene por ti

Watching this movie for the second or third time after 13 years and it still giving me the creeps at some scenes! Especially with the help of the ghosts' make-up which looks quite real and some effective jumpscares. Overall a classic Thai horror.

This is a story about a movie-house and its denizens. Two projectionists snag a horror movie to bootleg a copy, but they get caught. Plus, having this movie in your possession isn't such a good idea; it's haunted by the main character in its horror story and now she's coming for them. This is just an ok horror story with few real scares. The visuals of the scary hanged woman who kidnaps children and gouges out their eyes, though, are frightening indeed. The scary-gory ghost is one of the few good things in this flick.

Well, I will start out by saying that "Coming Soon" (aka "Program na winyan akat") is definitely a horror movie that proved to be entertaining and interesting. So if you enjoy Thai horror movies, then "Coming Soon" is most certainly a movie well worth checking out.

This was my second time of watching it, after having seen it back around the time when it was initially released. And while I had actually completely forgotten the movie, then it proved to be a movie that can be watched again.

The storyline in "Coming Soon" is one of ordinary regular horror, but at the same time then writers Sophon Sakdaphisit, Chanajai Tonsaithong and Kongkiat Khomsiri actually managed to put enough of a twist to the storyline so that the movie stood out and wasn't just another run-of-the-mill average horror movie.

I liked the twist to the storyline, and no, of course I am not going to give it away here. But it proved to be enough of an unforeseen plot twist that it was actually a nice reveal once it came about.

Visually then "Coming Soon" was a nice refreshing deviation away from the stereotypical horror movies, where you have a young girl dressed in a pure, white dress, with her long, black hair covering her face. Instead, you have a wrinkled, disfigured and deformed crone haunting the screen. And it worked. Oh yeah, it worked. Especially so, since the make-up department really worked their magic with the special effects and make-up.

The acting in the movie was good, and actor Chantavit Dhanasevi (playing Shane) carried the movie quite well with his performance.

All in all, "Coming Soon" is a good horror movie, and it is one that I can warmly recommend you taking the time to watch, if you have the time, and if you enjoy Thai horror movies.

My rating of "Coming Soon" lands on a six out of ten stars.

Coming soon is about a guy who works at a theater who makes a side living off of pirating movies. He starts to pirate a horror movie that just came out and weird things starts happening in his life.

You later find out why it starts to happen to him. I Don't wanna spoil it by saying why it happens. Although the surprise and reason is pretty cool All in all it was pretty original and well done the idea is definitely not something i think has been done in a horror movie before which is why it is definitely worth watching. Some pretty well done scares happen in this one and with the movie not being overly long and straight to the point and not dragged out only adds to why its great.

Although not a groundbreaking and revolutionary scary movie it stands out to me as a solid well done horror movie that should scare the average movie watcher pretty well. Definitely worth checking out

It has a semi-original idea and interesting enough setup but then doesn't really go anywhere interesting. Falls victim to the usual Asian tendencies for sappy relationships and sentimental nonsense. The CGI scares are fine but you don't care enough about the plot to get much out of it. Feels like they could only afford two main actors and filmed the rest in as few locations as possible. Our main duo then proceed to go on your stereotypical clue hunt where they progressively uncover what is meant to be a surprising and satisfying plot.

The whole thing just doesn't hold up 'cause of the corny way people act. It almost comes off more like a drama or low grade thriller than anything resembling horror.
