Re-cycle (aka Gwai wik) From Oxide Pang Chun and Danny Pang
Quote :
After writing three best-sellers about love story based on her own experiences, the successful writer Tsui Ting-Yin is without inspiration and having difficulties to write her new novel in the horror genre entitled "Re-cycle". While drafting the text, spooky events happen at her apartment and her former boy-friend of eight years ago visits her, after his divorce, proposing Tsui. When Tsui sees a supernatural long-haired character of her book, she follows him and is trapped in his world of terror
Not too bad! Some things and ideas are nice. I liked the land of the forgotten, some nice ideas there with some message such as the way we live, how we waste things and forget people....
Spoiler:
although clearly an anti abortion movie as well
It is well done and it has a nice fantasy vibe to it. But overall, there are too many cliches to fully be a success. And too many things get mixed up: is it a zombie movie, is it a fantasy movie, is it ghost story? Is it supposed to scare us? is it supposed to make us cry? For god sake, Make up your mind Mix of genre can be brilliant! unfortunatly not in this movie! But you might like it, again it is not that bad
