“”Every year, for thirty days during the lunar seventh month, the Chinese believe that the gates of hell are thrown open. Vengeful spirits or hungry ghosts wander among the living, seeking revenge and justice before the gates of hell are closed again for another year.” The eighteen years old Rosa Dimaano arrives in Singapore from Philippines to give support to her family working as a maid in the house of the artists of a Chinese opera troupe Mr. and Mrs. Teo on the first day of the seventh month of the lunar calendar. She is welcomed by the family and introduced to their friends and their retarded son Ah-Soon. Later, Mrs. Teo advises her about their beliefs and how the dead should be respected and honored along the seventh month. However, Rosa sweeps their offer on the sidewalk breaking a basic rule and offending the spirits, and she is haunted by ghosts everywhere.

Kichiro (2006)
Thursday, March 26th, 2009Movie: Kichiro (2006)
“Kichiro is an only child born to a Japanese father and a Chinese mother. As his father is the CEO of a top Japanese company and his mother is the principal of a prestigious secondary school, all his classmates and friends, including his teachers, never treat him with any sincerity. They are nice to him simply because of whom his parents are. In addition, Kichiro also feels estranged from his parents as they are always busy working and never really spend much time with him. They think that by giving Kichiro the best in terms of material needs, they will be able to make up for their lack of time spent with Kichiro. Due to lack of monitoring and lots of free time on his own (a common problem in today’s society when both parents are working), Kichiro spends his time indulging in pornographic materials and twisted stuff. He soon develops a fetish for bodily violence and he really feels ‘alive’ when he tries to execute it on Dawn, one of the girls who turn up at his house party. However, nobody knows about this perverted side of his. One day at a video shop, Kichiro meets Alex, who happens to be similar in character and background to him. They hit it off immediately as Alex invites Kichiro back home to watch some banned DVDs of extreme violence. They soon discover that both of them have always fantasized about putting such graphic violence into reality. This mutual revelation further strengthens their resolve to put the wanton violence they have seen on videos into action… Written by Kelvin Sng”
