Night out with Mum

Last night my mum & I managed to catch 2 horror movies over TV.

12 midnight @ Channel U - a Thai ghost movie about a pregnant woman who was harassed by a female ghost looking for her baby. Apparently this ghost needed this pregnant woman to help her investigate her mysterious death cause and the location of her baby. It turned out that actually this ghost (known as A mei when alive) had an affair with her teacher who is already a family man & got pregnant. The teacher obviously didn't want the existence of the baby to destroy his teaching career & family so he got people to drown her in a swamp. And Thai being the superstitious type, felt very uneasy about the fact that there is a foetus still in the dead corpse so the undertaker operated on the dead woman to take out the foetus. The following day, the undertaker sold the foetus to a rich man who believed that keeping foetus in the house can continue to bring prosperity to the house. So much so for feng shui...So the show ended with A mei taking revenge at the teacher & those who caused the separation of her foetus and her.

130am @ Channel 8 - a Hongkong ghost story which comprises of 3 parts and revolves around a team of undertakers and corpse make-up artists. The first part is about one corpse make-up artist's love for his beautiful girlfriend whom had an accident and had half of her face broken. She appeared to him & tell him that she wants to look pretty on her wake. So he makeup himself to look like her & guess wat? That's right, he laid himself onto of his girfriend in the coffin beneath the glass top & nobody actually realised that it's him. So yup.. he was buried alive with his girlfriend. The last 2 parts are very typical & not worth mentioning.

Actually I don't think I would have stayed up till 3plus to watch these ghostly movies if I was watching alone. Kinda scary to watch ghostly shows with all that scary sound effects when everyone else has fallen asleep right? But wat kept me going was my mum.. she actually stayed up to watch with me. To add to the eerie atmosphere, we had some spooky conversations too. She said "Next time when you are pregnant, better not watch this kinda scary shows, not good for the baby. Dun go zoo & see animals otherwise your baby will become like monkeys. Don't nail into walls. Don't use scissors on the bed..." Talking about foetus education tai jiao
..hehee.. And the list went on....
