Recently, I went to Mid Valley with my bro. Since we had so much of free time, we decided to catch a movie. There were quite a number of movies on screen that day such as High School Musical 3, The Vampire Who Admires Me, The Coffin, My Best Friend's Girl, Bangkok Dangerous, The House Bunny, Tropic Thunder, Disaster Movie and many more. Even among all the movies, High School Musical is the one with most promotion event, but we kinda not interested to watch it. Haha.. Then I actually was attracted to watch My Best Friend's Girl since it looks like romantic movie >.<. But, my bro dun like that type of lurvie gilrie romantico movies =/ . So after we looked again to the movies on showing, we finally choosed The Coffin. Why I choose The Coffin? First, I attracted to its title and poster. haha. Second is because Karen Mok is one of the cast =x. So..here we go..The Coffin!! 
(I wont add any spoiler, most of the synopsis is based on the official website of this movie)
The movie which is 80% english spoken with some Thailand diaologue, cast by Karen Mok (Sue), Ananda Everingham (Chris), Andrew Lin (Jack), Aki Shibuya (Mariko), and Napakpapha Nakprasitte (May). This movie is based on a true ritual practic in Thailand, where a person need to lie inside a coffin in order to get rid of their bad karma and to prolong life.
So, a young man, Chris and a young woman, Sue (who both of them dont have any relation in this story aka 2 story lines) decided to join the ritual in order to save them from their bad karma. Chris girlfriend, Mariko is coma in hospital, while Sue is diagnosed with tumor before her wedding. After the ritual, good events started to appear for both of them, but however followed by a series of pharanormal event which are believed to be the result from disturbing a wheel of karma (by join the ritual in the 1st place). Thus both of them tried warious ways in order to escape from being haunted by the pharanormality.
Overall, I can say its not a bad movie..Nice cast, beautiful cinematographic, and..yeah..it gives me a chill at times but however some plot of the movie are not so clear, especially the storyline of Chris, with the mysterious May. At the end I still not sure who is May actually..haha. But nvm, the movie is allright..I give 3 stars out of 5 :D
So, for those who interested to watch The Coffin, here is some pictures for u to see. All pictures credits to http://www.thecoffin-movie.com/en/ .
