Rating: Next Door 4/5, Dark Hole (2/5), The Lost Memory (3/5)

Personal Note: The story I like best is "Next Door" (guess it shows from my personal rating, huh?). Just wished that there was more to the storyline (lack of depth), most probably due to the time constraint. The casting was excellent! I have enjoyed this episode tremendously (to the extent of re-watching it for 4 times!!). However, the next episode "Dark Hole" was a disappointment. I never liked Japanese horror anyway. There's never anything horrifying at all in their horror movies - and most of the time, you will end up watching the movie and still remain as clueless about the storyline as you were before watching the movie (no offence intended). The Thai episode, "The Lost Memory", was average (but certainly not an episode worth re-watching as well). The most ridiculous aspect of the movie was the casting of Prang's husband, Wit who was supposedly to be a womanizer, and the man whom both Prang and her bestfriend, Paew fought over (oops, sorry about the spoiler!). My goodness, the guy isn't even anything near good-looking. Wonder what is wrong with the casting director's eyes??!
