Quando a Morte Sussurra

The movie is about a family in a remote village where they grow and sell shallots. The family members have just-out-of-the-salon hair and pretty stylish way of talking and walking. They no way looked like they belonged to that village. Yeah, good looks sell, but it must make some sense. Simply ridiculous. This just ruined the whole movie.

Chris hemsworth was in madmax, but the makeup, hairstyle everything made it look like he belonged there. The movie makers didnt even care to take any effort to match the look of the actors to the characters they played. So silly and pathetic. Besides that, the movie was ok.

Plus points:

• Very good-looking actors, ok use of sound
• The film itself is a no-brainer, therefore, suitable for average audience looking for pure entertainment

Minus points:

• Awkward interaction between characters as a family.

• The acting is almost too obvious
• Tee Yod regurgitates every element of a stereotypical horror movies, especially the overwhelming number of jump-scares. The film is generic as a result.

• Weak scriptwriting - no intensification, easy problem-solving throughout which renders the film ending extremely frustrating.

• Horrible visual effects
• A lot of underdeveloped characters
• The film fails to accentuate the power of the villain, thereby the devil seems to be an insane person rather than a transcendental entity.

I've become a huge fan of Thai horror. Anything Netflix puts out is more than likely a smash hit. They definitely put a lot of thought in time into this craft. I also like watching Thai horror and it's original Thai dialect that makes the movie so much better to watch. This particular movie was a hit for and I think everybody should watch it. It kind of reminded me of a Thailand version of the conjuring. The only difference is they add a lot more substance to their horror maybe it's because folklore and supernatural hits differently when it's shot in the fields of Thailand. We also don't know how much truth is drawn to produce these horror movies so for me that's a hit.

Enjoyed it, very much so that it wasn't scary to be suspenseful. I love the scary movies, I'm afraid of ghosts, but the mind wants to fight them and find out, and we don't expect them to be this gruesome. The story is an excellent story, for me, midway through to the end, there's hardly any time to catch a breath from a ghost, because ghosts are present most of the time, and ghosts are incredibly distracting to keep you confused. Although I was somewhat disappointed in the story, which could have been told a little more in depth. As of now, it's not quite as detailed yet, + the movie goes on formula. A ghost movie that can only guess what will happen next, and some elements don't seem entirely natural.

As another reviewer already mentioned, this movie feels a little like the Thai version of Evil Dead. The production value is obviously not as high, and I don't even want to compare the two. However, I had a decent time with this horror movie and thought it had a few genuinely well-crafted scares.

There are also lots of cheap jump scares, and the effects look a little poor at times, but it wasn't too distracting to the point of breaking immersion. The characters and dialogue were a little wonky at times, and the premise is nothing too original. However, the movie is crafted with passion and has a really dark atmosphere and provides some nice moments for fans of gore.

It ends with a big cliffhanger leading into the second part, which has already been released. Because of this, it works much better as a double feature, as the ending of this movie alone felt quite unsatisfying.

Overall, it's a decent horror movie from Thailand, and I enjoyed the majority of it, though I think the runtime could have been trimmed a little for a smoother narrative [5.9/10]
