Das Zusammenarbeiten von Regisseuren aus Thailand, Japan und Hong Kong im Horrorgenre geht weiter. Nach "Three" und "Three... Extremes" kommt nun "Black Night" auf die großen Leinwände.
Viel gibt es leider noch nicht, dennoch fangen wir am besten mit dem wichtigsten an:
-> Offizielle Webseite
-> Trailer der thailändischen Episode (Zip-File)
Meiner Meinung nach ist der Trailer ein absoluter Hammer, und wenn Japan und Hong Kong auf diesem Niveau weitermachen, wird das einer der besten Horrorfilme Asiens der letzten Jahre.
Der Trailer vermittelt einen genialen Eindruck, nicht nur visuell sieht alles grandios aus, sondern auch vom Setting, den Darstellern und Gruselelementen. Vermutlich wird hier auch endlich mal ein höheres Tempo eingeschlagen, und nicht immer nur auf langsam anschleichenden Grusel gesetzt.
Zum Abschluss die Inhaltsangaben der drei Stories, bisher nur auf Englisch:
Next Door, Hong Kong
It was July according to the lunar calendar; the month of the ghost festival. A lot of people were burning joss sticks and paper offerings in the streets to placate the wandering ghosts. Creepy horrifying incidents took place one after another on a fateful night when Taiwanese girl Jane (Annie LlU) returned to look for her policeman boyfriend Joe (Dylan KUO) only to discover that he has already started a new affair with his beautiful neighbor a girl from Mainland China, Hosie (Race WONG). When intense passion and great expectations were met with disillusionment of failed promises, tragedy was bound to arise. Amid the weird sound of marbles bouncing on the floor; sudden knocks on the door, scary images through the door peephole, the tale of the three protagonists interlocked in the web of fate was unfolded in a heart-rending, thought-inspiring as well as hair-raising manner.
Dark Hole, Japan
Bride-to-be Yuki (Asaka SETO) has been suffered by her nightmares. One day, she notices "a boy in a yellow outfit" appeared in real, who he has been visited in her dream several times. However, he is only apparent to Yuki and he vanishes when she recognizes his presence, only leaving a puddle of water behind. She feels frightened at these mysterious phenomena. As her fiancee, Satoshi (Takashi KASHIWABARA) suggested, she goes to see a psychiatrist.
Yuki's psychiatrist, Dr. Kawai (Tomorowo TAGUCHI), finds out the origin of Yuki's nightmares by several times' treatment. Yuki has lost her childhood memories when she was in the elementary school. Coincidentally, one of her classmate and her mother had mysteriously died in the most bizarre way. Yuki is terrified since she gradually implies the causality between her nightmare and those accidents. One day, she finally reveals her secret under hypnosis during the therapy that she used to have an unknown creature as a pet...
