I was impressed with the storyline and the costume design for a movie of this caliber and for the year of release. It is a movie that should be seen whether you are a horror, drama, documentary or horror fan.

Breaking Bad in Bangkok
Breaking Bad in Bangkok. Director Paul Spurrier takes a shot at the horror film genre in this thriller about an upcountry village girl with Cambodian roots who migrates to the Bangkokโs famous bar scene. This theme has been endlessly albeit artlessly developed by other filmmakers, and is standard fare for Thai audiences, who are connoisseurs of the genre. But here Spurrier aims freshly to take delight in the detail, and that means faultless accuracy including uncommercial use of Cambodian-flavored Thai language throughout, all to catch the real spirit, so to speak. My village-born Thai wife hugely enjoyed the film and said she was amazed at its precision; โEven the laundry in the apartment is hanging the right way" she said, having lived the life herself. The story happily skips the usual moralizing stereotypes as sweet Dau transforms from loving child caring for her ailing grandmother to Sin City innocente, and thenโฆ to something else entirely. Grannie has a few Cambodian prophylactics for her to pack in her little bag and before long Dau is deploying her wicked tricks in Bangkokโs red light bar scene. A few leering suitors are briskly dispatched with Odyssean resolve. But what happens to poor little Dau in this process? My wife said that she found it hard to accept that such a wonderful child could go so creepy so quickly, but then that's the way a lot of folks felt about Walter White, the anti-hero of the celebrated TV series Breaking Bad. Viewers whether old hand expats or armchair travelers will like this deft blend of fantasy and reality bubbling in a steamy corner of Asian life but ever so easily downloaded from Amazon Prime for less than a tenner.

Boring and stupid
Once you get past the set-up of the poor Thai country girl going to Bangkok with some kind of supernatural powers it all ends. Seriously, That's it. There is some attempt it seems as a horror film, but it fails miserably. Cool DVD cover art. Lousy movie

A treat for horror fans as P offers a creative approach to the demon-possession genre.

Not for the real fan of horror movies
If you are a long time fan of horror movies you will be disappointed in this one since it is very predictable from start to finish.Special effects and film quality do not match up to the brand name.OK for first time viewers of horror films but not for old-timers like me who are fans of imported horror films.
