Synopsis
Tales from the Occult 2 is a sequel to the 3-part omnibus and is a more ambitious work than its predecessor, swaying towards the psychological thriller genre. Frank Hui’s Rapunzel tells the story, which begins when a female model, sexually harassed by a record company CEO, visits a hair salon where a psychopath works. Daniel Chan’s Cheshire Cat is a nightmarish urban legend that slowly unveils the person who killed Nora’s cat, Bobo, as the trauma continues to haunt her. Doris Wong’s Tooth Fairy details the horrors that any person can experience at a dental clinic. Karena Lam who starred in Leslie Cheung’s last film, Inner Senses (2002), gives a memorable performance as the mysterious dental clinic nurse. (JU Sungchul)
