The Victim


Pitchanart Sakakorn as Ting/May

SYNOPSIS:

Ting is a struggling young actress who one day is noticed by Royal Thai Police Lieutenant Te, who heads up the crimes re-enactment unit and is always on the look-out for fresh talent. Ting is put to work playing the victim in photo shoots with the hand-cuffed accused killers and rapists at crime scenes. The photos are published in Thai newspapers as a means of the police publicizing that they have closed the case and done their jobs.

Ting takes a liking to her job, and is so convincing that even the criminals are moved to remorseful tears. Her popularity soaring, Ting is signed to play the lead in a film based on one of her true-crime re-enactments - the murder of Meen, a former Miss Thailand whose husband, Dr. Charun, is accused of the crime. Ting then starts experiencing some scary visions that lead her believe that Meen's longtime friend, Fai, is responsible.

Then it is revealed that the events were actually entirely a film about Meen's murder, and Ting is merely a character being played by another actress named May. - WIKIPEDIA

REVIEW:

Just like any other Asian movies, everything will be understood at the end. Just like what the synopsis has said, everything from the beginning is believed to be actually happening but in the end, you'll realize that everything was only a part of a film being made for the life of Ting, an aspiring actress who worked as a re-enactment actress for the national police.

As things have twisted after the true plot has been revealed, we will also soon discover that everyone, including May has fallen to be the VICTIM of an evil spirit.
