Movie content
Ghost is a film about Helen - a scientist and a university lecturer who teaches the subject of Alzherimer old dementia. Helen is a talented psychic who can see and communicate with spirits that ordinary people cannot see. Thanks to this talent, her teacher, Moira, after her death decided to leave Helen a secret room, even though Helen decided to give up her ability after the death of her daughter.
Moira's secret room is special when it contains only spirits or entities, but there are no other electronic signals or other phone or internet signals. This is an ideal place for Helen to be able to conduct research on a newly received scientific work, so she decided to accept the gift of the late professor and began conducting experiments on the souls of the deceased. . Since then, the incident happened suddenly to Helen and her assistant, causing them to almost die.
The script is quite simple, not too many unexpected situations, scaring the viewers. The heaviest scenes in the movie have appeared in the trailer, so if you watch the trailer before going to the theater, there is nothing scary anymore. But there are still some scenes that are enough to make viewers nervous. The script is considered to be the weakest part of the movie, if the writer takes care of the script, Ghost will certainly be a good horror work because the selected topic is very good and new.
The end of the Ghost will certainly disappoint many viewers, but Touch Cinema judges that with a low-budget film project like Inner Ghost, along with the not so popular cast, this ending is completely understandable. That is probably the reason that the film did not get much media coverage before it opened in theaters.
Spooky if classified in the psychological category will be more suitable for horror movies. So this movie is suitable for the faint of heart and is practicing watching horror movies. As for fans of horror films, perhaps they should wait for more attractive films, such as IT 2, to be shown this year.
