Evil Girl !

Rating: 8/10 (2 May 2010)

The plot of the movie is interesting because it begins with the short story that opens the mysterious thing for the movie. In the important scene of the short story that the man looks at the statue; the camera cuts to the man's face and zooms in after that the camera cuts to the statue and zooms in. Then, the audience can see the shot that they both stand in the opposite side with the weird of sound background(nondiegetic sound) that mixes with the sound of barking (offscreen sound). I think the director try to imply the audience that they both are going to encounter in some scene. In addition, the director uses "a lap dissolve" to connect between stories. Next, the plot of the movie follows with two story lines, and each story line meets each other in the middle of the movie. Moreover, the director uses the dream of the main actor to urge the expectation of the audience by connecting with the item(necklace) that was represented in the beginning of the movie. Finally, when the girl turn into evil, it looks very scary because the production designer did the good job for makeup. Plus, the director uses the special effect to show the supernatural things(shaking of the bed).
