But if you haven’t seen Echo, and for some reason can only access Sigaw, it’s still one of the better Asian haunting movies, and thus should be checked out. Again, the fact that the hero is a male for a change is somewhat refreshing, and he’s pretty likable as well. There are a couple of great scare moments (little girl running at the bed – gah!), and I like that there are both malevolent and benevolent ghosts, with our hero sort of trapped in the middle of their moebius strip fight. There’s some confusion with relation how much they appear in the real world (random neighbors seem to notice them on the elevator and in the hallway, yet during an attack the victim is being flung around by an invisible force), but otherwise it’s one of the more coherent of the genre as well – and the slight similarities to The Grudge (angry ghost vs. victim ghost) make this even more impressive, since those movies baffle the ever loving shit out of me.
arvin (Richard Gutierrez) savors his independence in a newly acquired unit of an old apartment building. He is frequently visited by his girlfriend Pinky (Angel Locsin). Except for the occasional noise from an apartment unit down the hallway, the place is almost perfect for Marvin.
The discovery sets into motion a series of hauntings that follow him and Pinky around. he decides to leave his apartment but the hauntings follow them wherever they go.
Marvin finally decided to confront the problem. He returns to the old apartment building to face the evil that dwells in it. What happens next shakes the very core of his beliefs about life, love and the spirit world.
