Classic Horror

Ok, this is just the genre I love. I strongly believe that only Asians can make - not that original, not that innovative horror...and make my skin crawl nevertheless. That is mostly the reason I am here, watching Asian masterpieces!

In my book this is classic.

There is something so cool about Thai horrors, probably the gruesomeness (which is not dominate in this story but they just had to have at least one or two disgusting visuals) all in the purpose of the story of course.

The length of the episodes, the overall length and the open ending, or not that open, if you know what i mean are just right. The story builds fast, no long unnecessary side stories and yet it is full of them.

I do not think I will re-watch it, but in case the 2nd season happens (which is so not necessary) I would give it one more go. It is perfect Halloween season watch. So if you like creepy October this can be saved for then.

Overall: Decent horror story, do not expect something out of this world, but you might me amused. I am rating it high because I enjoyed it a lot.

Holy Sh*t,that was GREAT!

I started this one with no expectations.I just was in the mood and the very short synopsis sounded really interesting.Plus is only 8 episodes so i didn't hesitate at all.
I rarely watch Thai Dramas unless is a BL.Iam not familiar with non -BL actors and iam clueless about Thai productions in general.

Iam speechless about the Top quality of this Drama.I always praise the Koreans,but this one is at top tiers indeed.
Direction & Cinematography at its very best pulls you immediately in the dark and gripping story.Sometimes too dark to handle..literally!!As many scenes are shooted with the minimum light.But the dark atmosphere added alot.I totally loved all the cinematic techniques they used.

My only complain is about the music which wasn't intense enough for such a strong and dark story.Unfortunately this factor ruined the perfect 10 this production deserves.(iam not talking about my final rate only about the technicalities)

Cast & Acting.I don't know any of the actors i can't really judge their skills as never saw them before but from what i saw here everyone was just fine,and almost perfect for their roles.

Story & Characters.
Unique and very interesting story.Not beating around the bush.It has a very straightforward plot.
We've been introduced to the main characters and their motives from the very start.
There is cheating,adultery, two couples and a magical and evil mobile phone which deletes people.
And the 2 love birds decides to get rid of their legal better halves.And here starts the trouble.Lol.
I will not get into any discussion about morality,how bad cheating is bla bla.Take it as it is because yes cheating is the main reason everything started.
I owe to tell you that you will not get any answers about the device(who made it,when,how and why)so don't be disappointed because of it.Just follow the story and let yourself immerse into it.Also we don't get to know the characters in depth but still we can understand them.
Obviously there are not loveable characters.Everyone is victim and perpetrator at the same time.
There are few twists and turns which makes this drama more juicy and spicy.
Don't "hate" the ending.Someone may think is an open one,some other -like me-is ok with it.Again just enjoy the ride.

No spoilers no tips and no explanations.Iam telling you Delete totally worths your time.You will be pleasantly surprised.
Strongly recommend that!

Twist Yang Berlebihan

Jujur bgt, aku gabosen nonton ini, seru, karena selalu ada twist di setiap episode, tapi endingnya sangat buruk. Sepanjang episode aku paham konsep yang diusung, tapi di eps akhir, mulai ngaco. Sepanjang eps pertanyaan di kepalaku banyak yang belum terjawab, eh malah dikasih ending ga mutu.

Aku suka dari awal karakter Two, aku harap development-nya ga terlalu jauh, karena udah bagus bgt, pesan yang mau disampein sebenarnya udah nyampe seandainya tidak ada twist ending.

Tapi sayangnya Two malah dibikin mengacau. Menurutku ini berlebihan dalam ngasih twist, karena sedari awal sudah banyak twist, seharusnya endingnya gaperlu nambahin twist yang ga penting.

Alurnya menarik, hanya aku ga setuju dengan pemilihan ending yang terlalu buruk.
