Movie Time : Tales From The Dark: Part 1

Happy weekend everyone! 
This post is talking about a Hong Kong movie -  Tales From The Dark: Part 1.
I have watched this movie with my friends and family at GSC cinema at One Utama last Wednesday. This movie is talk about three ghost related stories and it marks the directorial debut of famous Hong Kong actor Simon Yam. I thought it was one of the better ghost story films I've seen in years. Its a great mix of meaningful and scary.

• First story →  Stolen Goods 

       The rich will only become richer; the poor will only become poorer ... even in the afterlife.

Humble and obstinate Kwan (Simon Yam) recently loses his job but is reluctant to apply for social welfare. He believes he can earn a living if he works hard. But in an unfair society where prices go up and salary doesn’t, he can barely make ends meet. Realizing the rent of his “coffin”-sized room is overdue, he resolves to stealing urns of the deceased, hoping their heirs would pay to reclaim it. Things don’t go as smooth as he planned ... until one night when an unusual heir calls to arrange the exchange.

Here is some picture in the story.

• Second story → A Word In The Palm

      On his last day of business, fortune teller Ho (Tony Leung Ka Fai), who is famous for his third eye, is visited by a married couple. The pregnant wife has been feeling unease lately and suspects she’s being haunted. Reluctant to accept the job, Ho directs the case to his neighbor, crystal gazer Lan (Kelly Chen). Meanwhile, an innocent teenage girl stops by Ho’s shop, claiming to be waiting for someone. When the couple leaves Lan’s shop, the girl follows suit, leaving a trail of water as she goes. Ho senses something dubious and teams up with Lan to investigate further, who found out the girl drowned herself a few days ago ...

Here is some picture in the story.

• Last story→ Jing Zhe 

      One chilly Jingzhe night, veteran villain hitter Chu (Siu Yam-yam) meets an uncommon client, a pretty 20-ish girl (Dada Chan) who pays her to curse 4 villains without knowing their names. Mysteriously, with each cursing ceremony performed delivers a gruesome death of a victim. When it comes to the last victim, or villain, it also unfolds a chilling, intolerable secret.

Here is some picture in the story.

In the end, I am quite satisfied with the movie. If you haven't watch it, must take it before it be pulled from theaters. ;)
