Synopsis

Dong, a young photographer, was driving home from a party with his girlfriend, Jen.

While driving, the car hit a woman in white.

Seeing that she fell to the ground, the frightened Dong urged Jane to drive away from the scene immediately.

Because of this incident, the two have been brooding and their lives have been affected.

Guilt-ridden Jane even had hallucinations, and some ghostly images appeared in Dong's photos.

So, the two decided to inquire about the woman's situation.

But the strange thing is that through his internal friends, Dong found out that neither the hospital nor the police station had been injured in a car accident recently.

There was no way, the two had no choice but to give up, but the strange thing did not end.

Dong's neck started to sore and his weight became abnormal.

Jane decides to start her investigation through the supernatural photos.

She found that the place where the ghost image was in the photo taken by Dong was the third floor of a building.

Jane went to this floor and found that it was a research room full of various specimens.

There is a photo on the desk in the research room, and the woman in white in the photo appears to be the one who was hit by the car that night.

At the same time, three of Dong's college classmates committed suicide by jumping off the building.

Under Jane's questioning, Dong told the truth.

The woman in white is called Nata, who is his former classmate and ex-girlfriend.

Nata is introverted and autistic, and Dong walked with her with sympathy.

The two were sweet at first, and Nata, who was captured, loved Dong very much, and even gave Dong's favorite camera as a gift.

But Dong, who was already holding a playful mentality, felt the pressure instead.

He decides to break up with Nata, laughing at her along with a few classmates in the process.

Sad Nata often self-mutilation, and ultimately do not know whereabouts.

In other words, the strange event may be Nata's revenge now.

And the three classmates who mocked her at the time have all died, and it may be Dong's turn soon.

In order to save Dong, Jane decided to accompany him to Nata's hometown to find out the truth...


Video Analysis

When I mention horror movies, I immediately think of Thailand and Japan (everyone has different horror points, and it is difficult for European and American films to give me a real sense of horror). Among them, the types of horror movies in Thailand are also richer, with segmented ones. "Death Crossroads", "Ghost Ran 5", etc., there are witchcraft, bloody "Devil's Art" series, comedy-style "Ghost Man", and ghost-ridden "Ghosts Will Show", What I want to share today is what I think is the most classic horror scene in it, and it is also the top of the list of Thai horror films, "Ghost Shadow".

Speaking of "Ghost Shadow", I believe that friends who have seen it will surely have a scene deeply imprinted in their minds. It's like climbing the TV in "Midnight Bell", climbing the bed in "The Grudge", and having no jaw in "Dead Silence", which is unforgettable. I have always thought that a movie that has such a classic scene that can be repeated decades later is a success in itself. As for which scene in "Ghost Shadow", I won't spoil it, because the director painstakingly buried this stalk to make our viewing experience more enjoyable.

I have seen a lot of negative comments on the Internet, and they are generally "boring, not as scary as XXX", "it doesn't make any sense to look at it now", "there is no turbulence in my heart" and so on. In fact, I want to say that radishes and vegetables have their own preferences, and no matter how good a movie is, it is impossible to get full marks. Some like "The Conjuring", and some like "The Grudge". A good horror film needs a qualified story, excellent atmosphere creation and classic scary plots. These "Ghost Shadows" have all of them. As for those who "have no trouble in their hearts", you may be a millionaire yourself. No one's chosen son.

Going back to the film, the content of the story is very simple. Like many horror films, it is probably "wronged souls", and "retribution" is also the usual theme of many horror films. The so-called "I don't do anything wrong in my life, and I'm not afraid of ghosts knocking on the door in the middle of the night", and the story starts with something wrong. After hitting someone with a car, the male protagonist persuaded the female protagonist to choose to escape. This is an extremely bad thing in itself, and it also reflects the cowardice of the male protagonist and the character that he will choose to escape after encountering an accident.

As an audience, we may easily guess the relationship between the female ghost and the male protagonist, but what we never expected is that the male protagonist is far more scum and excessive than we imagined. Cheating feelings may not be a crime to die, but what happened after that he died ten times is not too much. I can feel Nata's despair and sadness at that time, and I can imagine the hatred after she turned into a ghost.

There are not many face-to-face confrontations between ghosts and people in the film, and the image of ghosts is not as deeply rooted as Gaya in "The Grudge", or even less terrifying than in "Alien Dimension", but the 15 minutes at the end of the film will When the foreshadowing buried in the whole film is thrown out, it is really creepy. "Sometimes ghosts can't bear their loved ones", and how do we know they're around?



If you use all means to get rid of a person, you may be haunted by evil spirits in this life.
