Death Whisperer

After the older brother returns to his hometown, he must find a way to save his younger sister from a bizarre disease that is causing her to behave differently. When a remote village is plagued by a deadly curse, one brother must fight to save his family from a terrifying supernatural threat.

I watched it with my 10-year-old goddaughter, who, like me, loves horror movies with ghosts and witches. This is another good Thai horror production. It has a few flaws, such as some dialogues and sequences, but it is enjoyable to enjoy. A close-knit family, a possessed little girl, the legend of the Whispering Witch. It is quite satisfying, as my goddaughter would say...

This film not only presents intense horror scenes but also incorporates elements of gore that truly sent shivers down my spine and made me feel genuinely scared. The storyline is engaging and full of unexpected twists that keep us on edge.

As a horror film, Death Whisperer does a solid job weaving its narrative. The exposition is delivered in a balanced way, ensuring the audience doesn't get lost or confused throughout the film. The plot is captivating, and with numerous twists and turns, it becomes difficult to predict how the story will unfold by the end.

The film features several good-looking characters, likely chosen to portray the six main children in the story. This casting decision seems to have been made to boost the film's appeal, and it appears to have worked. Thai model Nadech Kugimiya, known from The Con-Heartist (2020), plays Yak in the film. Technically, what stands out is the score, which heightens the creepy atmosphere and maintains a constant sense of tension throughout. The death whispers, a central feature of the film, are especially chilling.

However, in certain scenes, the score can be a bit overpowering, though it's still understandable. The jump scares are effective and manage to surprise the audience, feeling natural rather than forced.

As another reviewer already mentioned, this movie feels a little like the Thai version of Evil Dead. The production value is obviously not as high, and I don't even want to compare the two. However, I had a decent time with this horror movie and thought it had a few genuinely well-crafted scares.

There are also lots of cheap jump scares, and the effects look a little poor at times, but it wasn't too distracting to the point of breaking immersion. The characters and dialogue were a little wonky at times, and the premise is nothing too original. However, the movie is crafted with passion and has a really dark atmosphere and provides some nice moments for fans of gore.

It ends with a big cliffhanger leading into the second part, which has already been released. Because of this, it works much better as a double feature, as the ending of this movie alone felt quite unsatisfying.

Overall, it's a decent horror movie from Thailand, and I enjoyed the majority of it, though I think the runtime could have been trimmed a little for a smoother narrative [5.9/10]

This is one first Thai films I have watched and I watched with English subtitles. These did not always translate well so I felt a little confused about what was happening at times and some of the jokes didn't really make sense when translated. I also found that the plot was very formulaic and it was difficult to understand what the characters motivations were. Some of the characters like the two brothers contributed nothing to the plot and just felt like they were there because they were in the original story. I still found it scary but I didn't think it brought anything new to the table in terms of the horror genre. Overall, good film but not amazing.

The movie is about a family in a remote village where they grow and sell shallots. The family members have just-out-of-the-salon hair and pretty stylish way of talking and walking. They no way looked like they belonged to that village. Yeah, good looks sell, but it must make some sense. Simply ridiculous. This just ruined the whole movie.

Chris hemsworth was in madmax, but the makeup, hairstyle everything made it look like he belonged there. The movie makers didnt even care to take any effort to match the look of the actors to the characters they played. So silly and pathetic. Besides that, the movie was ok.
