From ‘Veronica’, ‘The Perfection’ and ‘His House’
Kevin Ko directs this 110-minute drama, where a mother breaks a curse to save her daughter from a cult’s wrath. Viewers get cursed too, reciting taboo words that blur screen and reality. Ko weaves maternal panic with folklore dread, her frantic prayers feeling all too real. It is the kind of film that has you double-checking locks, haunted by love’s dark bargains. The main cast of this Taiwanese horror film includes, Tsai Hsuan Yen as Li Ronan, a mother trying to break a horrifying curse on her daughter. Huang Sin-Ting as Dodo, Ronan’s young daughter. Sean Lin- a friend who joins the dangerous investigation.
