MY REVIEW

I admit this is one of the scariest malay horror movie. But focusing on storyline, this movie has nothing, or at least very thin story line. It lack for vital segments before you can call it a horror movie. Pontianak Harum Sundal Malam is one movie with the best storyline ever.

The suspense and chilling effect was good. Ghost are "visible" enough but makeup too much. I hate the ghost hand job (not that hand job you pervert). The hand remind me of thai traditional dancer. It was more of witch hand than a ghost. Face makeup too much I got confuse between a ghost or ugly butt monster.

Ghost has no purpose? Apparently the ghost was looking for a new master but it doesn't explain why much kill the girl? Can't her be the new master. I don't know, thin story line.

We were shown Darma been away from God for sometime and later after getting advice from his boss, he started to be more religious kind of person. He prayed before he went to bed at 12 midnite, but somehow he set his alarm at 7.30 am. Wasn't he suppose to get up earlier for suboh prayer..... mmm... half heartedly, no wonder ghost keep coming back.


Ghost #1 : Someone need a haircut. And someone need to run !!!!!

This ghost was shown to be able to fly and walk. Why suddenly need to crawl?
Dey thambi !! you are in the wrong movie dah.... this is ain't The Ring.
