Having worked in Thailand before and still am, it’s pretty clear to me, as with my Thai colleagues that this is one movie that will grip you by the horns.
Or it might not.
For sure, it will provide you with some chilly, scary moments.
Along with an accompaniment of mindless gags.
Hence we should pronounce this as a Ghost Comedy.
Now, the rural population of THAILAND is around 46 million and these country folks love this brand of comedies. Good to laugh, they chime.
Smart director Pakphum Wongjinda knows where to place his sentiments in a win-win situation.
He has also gleefully calculated the inflow of dollars and cents.
The drab Plot:
“A group of college students pick a remote Chinese cemetery as a filming locale for their
senior-year short movie project.
The filming scrīpt is planned to be a weepy romance that will tear at your heartstrings.
Quite by coincidence the shoot dates happen to fall during the Chinese Ghost Festival.
But the real terror erupts when Ji (Apittha “Mean” Klaiudom), a depressed female colleague, who has just joined the crew gets possessed by a stray spirit.
The horrifying spirit wants the crew to help it to accomplish something…
Or else death will befall everyone.”
It is silly to even compare this movie with PEE MAK, the blockbuster which stars MARIO MAURER.
PEE MAK is helmed by a very renowned director and MARIO is a Thailand superstar.
The ensemble cast of POSSESSED are relatively unknown.
No matter, as the 46 million people comprising the rural populace were to buy the DVD version, the sales will still reap a tidy amount, even if this film should flop at the cinema.
Is this movie deliciously demented?
Not on your life, but if you like Thai horror comedies, check this one out.
