Reviews
Watchable for Nanon's performance
Listen, I'm a huge fan of Thai horror films, so I went in with pretty high expectations. Overall, it's a watchable film but honestly nothing could beat Shutter in terms of delivering scary moments. It didn't help that both films use cameras to drive the plot. There were a few jump scares in SLR, but it didn't give me the lingering creepiness that Shutter did (seriously, the climax and reveal gave me nightmares for weeks!)All the actors performed to my expectations, especially Nanon. Sadly the story itself is pretty weak. I hope he'll have a better script in the future.

It took me 3 attempts to get into this movie. The exposition and introduction to the characters and plot is just way too long - this ain’t that deep, there ain’t no complex lore to flesh about. It’s as basic and predictable as it gets. Just move on to the wacky supernatural deaths…
I honestly think the movie should lead more towards a B class horror movie and deliver entertainment. Somehow, I felt like they were trying to be a little bit too serious about it all. In the end it was neither entertaining nor interesting.
Nanon’s acting was too good for this production. Cherprang gave me close to nothing - flat from opening till the end.
Production value was fine. Closer to the end we’ve got some nice supernatural moments and the CGI was decent.
Overall, the biggest issue I had was the fact the movie was simply boring.
