A steamy horror flick from the Philippines. They're not really known for their risqué films, and this one got quite a bit of flack, so I guess we won't be seeing too many like it. It's a nice change of pace for (South) Asian horror though. While not quite enough to definitively set it apart from its peers, it's at least giving something a bit different from the usual ghost/curse stories.
The presentation is pleasant, the setup is different enough from similar horror films, and while not too original in and of itself it kept me guessing where it was going to go. Sadly, the second half covers more familiar territory. Not a bad film, I just wish they'd gone for a different finale.
