This movie is based on an old Thai ghost story which has essentially been brought back into the modern age. Keeping with tradition, "Mak" (played by Rangsiroj Panpeng) is a young man who lives in a small village in Thailand and happily marries a beautiful local woman named "Nak" (Bongkoj Khongmalai). Unfortunately, Mak is conscripted by the government to fight in a war and has to leave his pregnant wife behind. While he is away Nak dies while in labor along with her unborn child. Unaware of this tragic news, Mak returns home to find Nak patiently waiting for him. At least, that is who he thinks it is. Now, even though I am not an expert in Thai ghost stories, as a modest fan of horror movies I found this particular film to be quite interesting in that it had a decent combination of humor and tragedy mixed in with a really creepy atmosphere. Likewise, although this picture was filmed in 3D, the movie I saw lacked this particular attribute and from that aspect the special effects weren't particularly impressive. Not bad--but not that great either. In any case, while this might not be a top-tier horror film, I think that those viewers who are able to navigate around cultural boundaries might find this movie to be somewhat entertaining and I have rated it accordingly. Average.
