I enjoyed the first story about the lonely girl laid up in her apartment after breaking her leg in a car accident. When she first receives SMS messages from an unknown boy she is at first delighted. But it soon turns to terror.
The second story was based around revenge and black magic. The shock here was more the body count and how much gore they could show. You will enjoy if you like that kind of shock.
The third story is a parody of the Sixth Sense and other movies. It was funny and a relief after the previous blood and guts story. It is centered around four university students who go on a rafting trip through the jungle. They joke about cliches in Thai horror movies and speculate what would happen if one of them would accidentally die on this trip. This was my favourite.
The last one is about a flight attendant on a special charter flight who finds herself all alone with a dead body. This tuns out to be a revenge story too but not as satisfying as the others.
Personnaly, I prefered the 3. one, because of the comedy it showed. But without the Oh-so-bloody-&-gore short movie just before, it wouldnt have been as great. So, I really liked all 4 of them. Also, note how different each movie is from the other: First one was really calm with a huge shock at the end. Second one, people were dying like flys. Third one was more about comedy & ghost story. & the Fourth one was really more psychologic & on the edge. So, they all had a lot to offer & were brilliant together
Isit possible that you can send me the trailer for 4bia pls? Thanks!
