🎬 MovieFinder's Take

The director builds tension through lingering shots of the decaying guesthouse and the unsettling quiet of the coastal off-season, creating a sense of dread that feels both atmospheric and claustrophobic.

Fans of 90s Hong Kong genre cinema will appreciate its slow-burn approach to supernatural revenge, though the pacing may test modern horror viewers expecting immediate scares. — MovieFinder Editorial
