MOVIE REVIEW: STILL 2 (THAI HORROR FILM 2014)
Actor CHAIWAT THONGSAENG DOES A NAMELESS CAMEO HERE.
He played the lead in POJ ANON’s 2007 controversial film called BANGKOK LOVE STORY .
CHAIWAT THONGSAENG in RECENT YEARS SPORTS A HIGHER NOSE BRIDGE which indicates that he has gone under the knife.
Sadly his movie luck has yet to see any vast improvement.
“STILL 2″ 2014 THAI FILM
PRESS REVIEW
I can’t help it. I almost fell off my seat midway through the film. Not out of fright. Just disbelief.
The scares come aplenty, more than what you’d have expected, to make your skin crawl.
This Reviewer has not seen the creepy old version bearing the same title.
There isn’t a reel need, as this new one has different stories and ample ground to shock you out of your ballers.
Blood, gore, violence and sadism are spewed everywhere, to curdle your innards for those who are drearily bloodthirsty.
FOUR TRUE CRIME STORIES. FOUR DIFFERENT THAI DIRECTORS.
Each director has his own stylized visual treatment.
Each has his share of nubile damsels and gorgeous hunks to tantalize the audience.
Then they are butchered or plundered, one after another, for your viewing pleasure. Torture most foul, right.
This film has a fine select of brutality and murders all stemming from this element called love, such as:
A public minivan with screaming passengers on board being hurtled to their deaths from an elevated expressway to the ground below. What brought about this?
Another episode has unsuspecting women being killed and discarded within the sewers of a derelict brothel.
Then we are whisked to another yarn, that of a female body being stuffed into a run-down hotel air-conditioning. Wait … there could be more than one victim. And the reasons for the killings?
Last, but not least is a young lovestruck man who leaves the sanctuary of the temple with a vengeance after hacking his girl friend to pieces, to atone for her infidelity.
NO SPOILERS, please, so as not to mar your enjoyment.
The film is a heart-pounding adrenaline rush with shocking gravity.
Visit the cinema, catch this movie and you will not be disappointed.
Among a myriad of THAI Spooks and demon movies, this film ranks as one of the better ones.
