Alright, now "Krasue: Inhuman Kiss" turned out to be one of the bigger Asian surprises of 2019 so far. I didn't really know much about the movie, except it was a Thai horror movie, when I sat down to watch it. But my fascination with horror and Asian cinema was, of course, more than sufficient to make me have an interest in this movie from writer Chookiat Sakveerakul and writer/director Sitisiri Mongkolsiri.
The storyline in "Krasue: Inhuman Kiss" was really interesting, and it was so enjoyable to watch a movie that incorporated the South-Eastern Asia of the Krasue (as it is known in Thailand), Ahp in Cambodia and Kasu in Laos. I've always found this folklore of the disembodied floating head to be fascinating and interesting. And it was brought to a glorious and entertaining manner on the screen in 2019.
"Krasue: Inhuman Kiss" incorporates both horror, drama and lovestory elements in a very nicely mix, which is portrayed so well on the screen by the actors and actresses.
And the special effects in the movie. Well for a horror movie such as this, then having believable special effects and CGI is a must. Luckily the CGI and special effects team working on "Krasue: Inhuman Kiss" really knew their craft. It was pure joy to watch the special effects in the movie, and they brought the Krasue to life on the screen quite nicely.
This is not your typical Asian horror movie, so don't expect any woman in white dresses with black hair covering their faces. Instead, prepare yourself for an interesting and macabre folklore tale brought to life on the screen.
I am rating "Krasue: Inhuman Kiss" a solid seven out of ten stars, because this was really a nice movie in every aspect. Even if you are not a fan of Thai or Asian movies, but have an interest in horror, then you should take the time and effort to sit down and watch "Krasue: Inhuman Kiss" if you are presented with a chance to do so.
