Synopsis

This movie tells the story of unfortunate men who hide in an apartment with a ghost. Fate has made the comedians into bank robbers. After robbering a bank, they enter an apartment without knowing that it is haunted. When they are about to share the money, the money disappears and they search everywhere in the apartment. They find that the sixth floor is locked tight. They go into the tabooed area and find their money in Room 609. However, it is not only money they found, they also find the spirit of a who died years ago due to unfortunate accident. What will happen to them? This is the sequel of Buppah Rahtree (2003), a horror-comedy that shows great adoration to Exorcist , the representative horror movie of Hollywood in the 70s. In the first movie, Rahtree encounters a tragic death after a series of unfortunate incidents. She becomes a ghost and creates her own space in an apartment. The movie was a hit in Thailand as well as in other countries, so Yuthlert Sippapak, the director of the series, planned the sequel. Sippapak who showed both wit and horrow in the first movie, made the second one in order to please his fans. At present, Sippapak is working on Kill Tim and its sequel, which make  fun of the Kill Bill  series by Quentin Tarantino.
