This is a quite good Malaysia horror ghost movie i should say. A KRU production, the sound effect is damn good. The storyline is clean and nice, very localized. The only thing i m not happy is the 2 actresses' acting. Well, they might be new in this industry, i m not sure. But hopefully their acting will get better in future.
