Cheap production, bad casts, terrible acting, awful make-up and a messed up writtings

Nothing special on the storyline - just like every malay horror movies (same formula, same crappy scripts). Not sure if it was a ghost movie or just a lame zombie movie. Far from being possesed instead of being infected. A straight forward plotting with messy execution. Not sure what message they try to convey.Cheap production for sure. Terrible actings, doesnt seems to be cinematic instead felt like a fan made movie. Lack focus and weak characterisation.For a 2022 movie, it lacks diversity which was very shameful. Some of the casts were terrible for their respective characters. Some casts were too old to play as school boys (or hostelites - ive no clue why dormitory school boys need ptptn loan nor how they allowed students with long dyed hairs ). Meanwhile the cast for the teacher was too young for that character. Seem as these boys and the teacher were of the same age group lol.The filming quality (too shaky) was considerably mediocre and the scores were kinda awful. Awful choices for the sceneries and the movie set itself was odd. The writtings were awful - literally makes no sense and not funny at all. The make-up departments were horrible, not that anything eye catching.Overall mediocre and totally suitable for all ages although not recommended.

Bridging two horror concepts together

This was really great in the first half and then the story kind of got lost along the way. It's something with the sequencing of the story and some unnecessary drama. Some characters need not have perished or perished so early in the movie. Some details were only revealed in the later part of the movie and it kind of lost it's relevance. Some details weren't quite clear, as is typical of Asian horror movies.I like the demonic possession meets zombies concept. I've never seen another movie with such concept that really resonated with me, so I'm assuming this maybe the first of its kind. I think it's brilliant and creative. I'm an avid fan of Asian horror cinema and I've watched a whole lot of them. Where there usually is bad acting and a cast that just looks "pretty", this one has good acting and a cast with looks that have CHARACTER.I'm not saying they're not good looking, though! I'm just saying they don't look generic and dolled up. You can distinguish one character from the other without their looks getting in the way. I think this is perhaps what I like most about the movie.They got the ominous feeling of being uncertain and helpless, down pat. That scene where the teacher gets face to face with an infected student and when "ground zero" got in Kechik's face. That was terrifying! Plus that guard approaching that bloody student who had his back turned, seriously, there are only two adults in the hostel and there an unscheduled blackout then you see that kid who isn't in distress but is covered in blood. What are the odds that they've become a demonic being with bloodlust? The creepy is strong with this one.What I didn't like is the sequencing and the coherence. I think it could've been better. Just in case a sequel is in the works, might be great to explain the stuff on this movie that were left floating.Lastly, why wear a beanie/bonnet in a tropical country?

Generic zombie movie

It has an interesting start and some characters you can actually like but it seems to drop off once they get to the camp.It had potential but it turns into a generic and stereotypical zombie movie where they do everything wrong and put others at risk.I've seen stupidity in films like this, but this takes it to another level. This is especially after they already discussed a local possessed village. They put themselves and others at risk. There's supposed to be 27 infected in this movie but you barely see more than 10 people - what happened to the rest and why aren't they brought into movie earlier. They mostly just get a passing mention other than the core group.The zombies are good and well created but the humans leave less to be desired.Instead of calling the authorities he calls his sister who returns to the camp with her friend and puts them both at risk.If you can suspend belief that it will a movie with people making smart decisions then you may enjoy this, but there are a lot of similar movies like this which do it much better.I find the religious undertones of the movie quite forced and frequent. I'm fine with sky religion being part of a movie but at times its a bit overpowering, especially when not relevant to that scene or situation. It seemed at times forced and inappropriate. I may not be used to this type context within a movie and I'm not being disrespectful but it seemed forced at times.It's not bad but it could have been so much better - reasonable effort but left a lot to be desired. The ending was quite abrupt with no real resolution or meaningful ending.
