Forrest Gump said you never know what you’re going to get from life’s box of chocolates. Narcissistic, spot-on selfie media satire ‘Follow’, starring accomplished little kids who want to be stars, looks and tastes like a bowl of rainbow candy. But they are laced with something sharp. Perhaps even a razor blade, embedded in the chocolate bar of urban Hallowe’en legend. This is no Thai ‘Bugsy Malone’. These are not kids in Big People drag. They are themselves. One wishes in fact that they were not so natural; that the film weren’t so realistic. “Evie, why don’t you do your homework?” – “I’m busy with my business,” says the worldly little girl. What business? “The movie star business of course,” is her barely exasperated reply. In Thai, or rather Tinglish, that’s “Turakij Movie Star”, and I’m so sorry if you can’t speak Thai, because they can’t afford English subtitles.

This Thai horror movie is divided into three chapters. The first chapter, "Wicked", set during the reign of King Rama VI, tells of a village deep within a forest. It is plagued with unexplainable events that are believed to have been brought on by a curse. The second chapter, "Tattoo", is about a cruel curse that is embroidered through ink into the victim's skin, forcing them to carry the curse until they die. In the third and final chapter, "Wife's Curse", it follows a person who has accumulated damning curses to the point of no return, which no good deed can ever erase. His fate will be decided by those curses.

Those images flow from track to crack the sea. This memory is lost. Or is the memory, which invented new. They said to each other Buzz to give daytime and night vision can listen.
