Asian horror movies
are creating a buzz to the westerners. This is proved by the numerous adaptations
like The Grudge, Oldboy, The Echo, and The Eye. When I’m searching for the best
Asian horror movies that I might overlooked, I saw Dream Home. The plot is nice
so I grab a copy. After watching it, I can say that this is one of Asia’s best
movies in existence.
The story is about a
woman who is very fascinated about buying a condo unit with the harbor view.
Even though she has savings, she can’t still afford the mortgage for the unit. In
desperation, she does something horrifying that will allow her to get the unit
for a cheaper price.
The plot of the story
is crazy. It gives us a glimpse of how far a person can go just to fulfill his
dreams. This is a presentation of how evil can turn us to a mad person. The main
character is actually a good person at first, but her desire eats up the
goodness she have in her heat. Thus she ended up doing something that is
vicious and notorious.
I can say that the
flow of the story might be irritating for others. But for me, I find it just
right. It allows us to know more about the main character and why she is doing
it. The flashbacks are intelligently inserted in the movie, giving the viewers
a clean balance between the back story and the crime she committed. However, if
you will watch it, make sure that you would watch it in full length.
That is something that
I love about this movie. It captures my attention and wouldn’t let me go to pee
or to grab snacks. I was very focused on the movie because I’m waiting for
something, from the back story and for her next move. I’m glad that all my
questions were answered and I’m satisfied with the gore I’ve seen. I couldn’t
ask for more and I wish that no one will ever dare to make their own versions
because I’m afraid that it wouldn’t work.
