The Ghoul

In a quiet riverside village, rumors spread that a takian tree is haunted, and that its spirit has begun walking among the living as a beautiful but terrifying apparition. When the ghostly woman appears, everyday routines collapse into paranoia and slapstick panic, with villagers bolting through fields, hiding wherever they can, and turning on each other in their scramble to survive the night. A flickering, fragmentary glimpse of early Thai horror where comedy and dread share the same shadow.
