My Rating : 5/5


This movie is tough to review because it essentially is supposed to be vague and strangely that is the strongest reason for anyone to watch it. Another way to describe this movie is that its a kind of a murder mystery in which the suspense is the motive of the crime and thankfully, it remains unsolved. Then, it is also a comic ghost story where the ghosts want to know why they died? If these plot descriptions aren’t good enough to intrigue you then you are probably dead as well.
