Solid Taiwanese horror; tho nothing too original, it's done very well with some legitimately creepy moments, very fitting atmosphere, and a nice little twist at the end. Overall, it feels a bit like...Blair Witch Project meets The Grudge.

Amateur quality acting. Too hard to keep concentration. The movie would be way nicer, if the actresses scream less and act less childish. Not a single actor or actress acted like an university student, they acted more like bunch of school girls.

Waste of time.

This film is set on a university campus in Taiwan where a reporter is investigating the deaths of five students. They died four years previously to the day... on the twenty ninth of February 2016. Apparently victims of a bridge that has been cursed since a student died there some years previously. Through a series of flashbacks we see the students taking part in a test of courage on the bridge and what happened subsequently.

Early on I thought I might have picked a dud here but it isn't long before things improve. As a chiller it is highly effective; more than once it gave me goose bumps and the way many characters are clearly terrified creates a great atmosphere. Inevitably there are some jumps scares; I didn't find them excessive though. We do get some decent twists, which I personally didn't see coming. The acting was solid enough as were most of the special effects. Overall I'd certainly recommend this to fans of far eastern ghost stories looking for something made somewhere other than Japan or South Korea.

These comments are based on watching the film in Chinese with English subtitles.

As someone who watches a lot of Taiwanese drama and movie, I can say that the acting wasn't that bad. There were a lot of incomprehensible screaming but that's it. The story was interesting, the cgi could have been better but it's still not awful (I've seen much worse). In overall, I liked it. My cup of tea with a good plot twist. I'm hoping for a second movie because of the ending tho.

Like a lot of Asian horror it features a girl with long straggly black hair who crawls across floors and ceilings in a creepy way, and water. It's got some decent scares and a creepy atmosphere that carries it rhek6. Better than most Netflix horror, just nothing to write home about.
