Featured review
Beautifully made coming of age story, with a creepy twist
While it has been generally well-received over the years, Dorm has never gained the stature that other Asian horror movies like The Eye, Ringu, and Ju-On have, even though it is well deserving of more widespread attention. It is a beautifully written, well-acted and directed coming-of-age ghost story drama, with some genuinely creepy and classical ghost story elements.
The first 1/3 or 1/2 develops as an effective ghost story in the contemporary Thai / Asian horror tradition. It then incorporates a surprisingly sensitive story about friendship, loyalty, and empathy for the emotional suffering of others. Dorm is therefore more thematically developed than most horror movies. At the same time, due to the excellent script and the consistently good judgment of the filmmakers, it manages to maintain effective ghost story elements while not giving way to maudlin or melodramatic storytelling. Highly recommended.
