  • Jacko Chiang
  • Liu Lingling as Madam Seetoh
  • Shawn Tan as XiaoLe
  • Timothy Law as Tam

Production

Writer-director Lee was attracted to the original short story, which he adapted, because of its emotional depth. Lee said casting for the film was difficult, as he had trouble finding an actress in her 30s who was both comfortable with horror and playing a mother.[2] Liu, who was cast as the mother, said the role was her "most challenging to date", as she had to play a range of emotions without having been a mother.[3] To prepare for the emotional scenes, she thought about the loss of her cats.[4] Liu cited a scene in which a disembodied hand fondles her as the most difficult in the film. After discussing it with Lee, he agreed to make it less intimate, and it was rewritten to involving kissing instead.[5]

Reception

Boon Chan of The Straits Times rated it 3.5/5 stars and wrote that the story always makes logical sense, avoids cheap scares, and emotionally involves viewers.[6]
