Rating:	★★★
Category:	Movies
Genre:	Horror

when i first watched the first Phobia [4BIA], i thought it was smart, frightening and a favourite. when i heard there was a sequel, i made up my mind, that i must watch it in the cinema. it should worth.

so last night, i went to see it with my Polar Bear and Otan. my sister.

here are the stories. taken from wikipedia [with some of my editing, since it's still fresh in my memory], cuz i simply too lazy to write my own :p

Novice

the story focusing on a 14 year old; Pey, who has committed a crime Pa-Hin (throwing rocks) (being on the motorcycle throwing rocks to the cars windshield waiting for the car to crashed then steal money and other valuable items from the owner) and in order to keep the news low his mom decided that Pey must get ordained to become a buddhist novice to escape the crime he commited, under the guise of a monk, Pey remains unnoticed as a criminal. However, something deep down inside is bothering him. As he spend the night in the woods trying to meditate something is bothering him, his thoughts and something else. The grip of fear tightens as he realizes that 'karma' has no friend or foe when deciding a man's fate or fortune.

Ward

Arthit; a playful teenager crashes his bike and breaks both legs. At the hospital he has been moved from the ER room to a shared room. In the room, there is an old man in a coma who has been waiting for almost a month for his family to decide to pull the plug on his oxygen. What happens that night will make Arthit realize that being alone is always better that being around bad company.

Backpackers

Upon graduation, a young Japanese couple decided to travel around Thailand by backpacking. After failed attempts to hitchhike from Samui island to Bangkok, the boyfriend waves a 1,000 Baht note in hopes to entice passing cats to pick them up. What is hiding inside the truck's trailer? Is there something deeper and darker that lurks behind the kind smiling face of the truck driver who lets them hop in? The answers to these questions will cause an adrenalin rush like no other.

Salvage

Nuch is a car dealer. She makes her living by rebuilding severely damaged cars. But little do unsuspecting bargain hunters know, beneath the new upholstery and shiny repainted exteriors are cars with horror pasts. One night after closing the car garage she discovers her son is missing. Reviewing the security camera tapes she sees her son climb inside a car that she recently bought but nowhere on tapes has him climbing out "Cemetary Garage" where you drive off with more that you bargained for.

In Between

[note: i changed the title, it's not In The End as Wikipedia said. and it's quite interesting, since the four blokes in this segment are also in the 4BIA. and on the same titled part.]
Ter, Puak, Shin and Aey are the movie crew of an upcoming horror movie. They are shooting their last scene. On the last night, Puak is trying to be cool and tells one of the sick cast members that, "the show must go on". So when that actress accidentally dies during the filming she makes sure to come back from the dead to finish her role. The four of them must shoot the movie that has a real ghost playing the role of ghost in the end. and the main actress must not know about this.

if you seen the first 4BIA, you all can rejoice, because there's no ugly 3D-ed ghoul in this one. but, it took price to exchange. the stories are not as smart as the first one, some of them are overdone. if i went to see it for free, i might walked out on the third segment. it's fucking gory and i hate it. right from the very first segment.
bah!

but, i think i made the right decision to ask my friends who'd seen it, what do they think about it. when they told me that the four blokes from the first movie appeared again and their part this time was way better and funnier. so i didn't actually wasting my 25k rups to watch blood spilled here and there [bugger off SAW and HOSTEL!!!! *gives finger*]

in my opinion, the second and last parts are alright. less blood, [somewhat] reasonable plot - especially the last one, love the twist! gah. i hate hospitals >_<

my least favourite? the third one. BAH!!
