Home for Rent

Although the movie tries too hard on the Scare-O-Meter by overly playing spooky music at every scene and typical jump scares, the story, suspense and build-up itself is good and made up for that unnecesity.

Synopsis: Ning, Kwin, and their daughter, Ing, shifted to the condo. Ning started to notice a shift in her husband's behavior. He was a little too attached to a red book that he carried along with him wherever he went. When Ning asked him about it, he stated that it was the factory manual. He had also recently had a symbol tattooed on his chest; he blamed it on a game of dare that he indulged in with his colleagues. Ning very well knew that Kwing was lying, but she couldn't understand the reason behind it. When she went back to the house to collect some items, she was a little surprised by Dr. Nuch's behavior. Dr. Nuch was clearly annoyed by Ning's sudden visit and wanted her to leave the house immediately.

Almost gave up good movies on Netflix, but then this pearl showed up , this is a very good horror movie , its walk the walk and talk the talk , a horror all inclusive , close to perfect

The story is very good, its scary actually, make you crawl up in the corner with the shamepillow infront of your face, not many movies can do that , this is asian quality on its edge, what I like most in this movie is the nonstop happenings, its start to be creepy pretty fast and then it just keep going with no breaks , you sit like a burning candle from first minute to the last

Acting is ok , effects aswell , but little bit the week points in this movie and it is little bit to long ,,, but this is anyway a very good horror movie.

I watched the movie in a theater and bought the ticket for about 2.5$, not knowing anything about it. I'm impressed with Thai and Indonesian horror movies, this one is not an exception.

I don't want to spoil the plot, so I'd say it has more than a possessed item storyline. The movie also tells the story following the sides of each of the two protagonists, explaining certain things and situations in detail.

It's an amazing movie overall and feels like a blockbuster - great CGI, editing and soundtrack, believable acting, etc.

It feels like the team and director respect the viewer, while I can't say it's something super new for the genre, it's definitely really well made and just feels quaility.

Home for Rent is a movie that comes out as fresh from the Asian cinema, one that is saturated with ghost stories. Don't get me wrong, this isn't far off either, but it does manage to provide a good plot, non linear execution and plenty of tension and mystery to it.

It was a nice surprise, I do declare myself a fan of this genre, the Asian market has its strong points, but lately nothing scary or convincing came out. This one isn't scary either but I do think it's intelligent, respects its viewer and is made with passion instead of a cash grab project.

Definitely recommended, it takes its time to build a proper story, to include the viewer, to make him question what's happening on the screen and also offers a good ending. So head to toes, a lovely experience here.

Cheers!

This one surprises me a lot. The production overall is just superb. The story grabs the attention of the audience all the way with such a clever and reasonable plot, great editing, talented cast, the sound effects and cg effects are excellent as a horror film. It has double twists and they work well. The main characters are performed by experienced actors and actresses and they all look believable in their roles. The child actresses did good job, too.

I think this is one good thrill ride. It keeps us wanting to know more how the mother would solve this problem with the tenants and her own husband. There are ghosts popping up here and there, and yes, they are scary. The dark ritual also looks strange and frightening.

Usually I don't give 9 rating to a horror film because it doesn't give any meaningful message. However, the sad but surprisingly touching and beautiful ending of the film made me decide to give higher rating. Surely, you won't be able to guess the ending before the climax scene. It shows that the writer of the story is smart and also has a heart.
