well thats my first review, you can guess!! the movie was actually that bad.....Yes it is one of the worst movie ever it is non horror at all , should be a thriller of a low grade and never be made as horror at all .True that the plot start promising but i just lost all interest after 29 minute of hardly trying to keep my eyes open ....why you ask >>>well thats a Thai movie who tries to capture a phenomena that happen to turn it to supernatural base it is purely cultural which is OK an all but the movie have set Zero effort to place any fear There is suspense I give u that but overall the film could have been made into a much better film and in my own review i say the idea is great but the display is very very poor just give it try when u have time to kill and u are Bored so just by then knock yourself out lol

This movie was quite poor to begin with. You had a cliché mysterious old women who scared you a little bit and a comical storyline. I did not like that at all. The movie then progresses to something that seemed like a 60s horror movie in a modern format. Did not work.My favourite part of the movie was the autism scenes, sure the makeup on the 'scary autistic' was sub standard but it had a vintage like quality as i mentioned before, but this time it actually worked.Of course you had the let down ending, clichéd, rushed and poor. Even the pathetic attempt at a 'clever' twist failed to save this movie. All I can say is this was my first time watching a Thai Horror Movie, wasn't impressed, I'm hoping the acclaimed Shutter will be better.

When Prae (Pimpan Chalaikupp) gets pregnant, her boyfriend Pong (Vittaya Wasukraipaisan) decides to marry her and they move to the house of Pong's mother. When their slow next door neighbor Benn gives old newspaper to Prae, her house catches fire and Benn dies totally burnt. Prae has a nervous breakdown and delivers her baby, the healthy Pan. When Pan is brought home, he uninterruptedly cries. Pong and Prae go to the doctor and he believes that baby has colic and will be better after six months old. However the baby never stops crying and Pong, his mother, Prae and her sister Jean (Kulthida Sattabongkoch) go with the baby to a monk in the temple and to an institute seeking an answer. On the eve of Pan's first anniversary, they discover that the baby is the reincarnation of an evil spirit and the souls of people that he had hurt in his past life want to wound him."Colic: Dek Hen Pee" is an Asian horror movie with an interesting premise, the counterpoint of the pain of colic and reincarnation. The viewers that believe in reincarnation certainly will appreciate this movie much more than me since I found the conclusion disappointing. The creepy atmosphere is scary, especially the scene with the autistic interns in the institute; but there is a poor development of Benn and the accident with Pong's mother is too forced. My vote is six.Title (Brazil): "Vidas Passadas" ("Past Lives")

As usual the trailer for this movie was more exciting than the movie itself! There are lot of moments that are creepy! But there also are a lot of scenes that are simply annoying! This is because the plot is very thin! When there are enough scares I don't really care about the plot! And if only the lack of suspense or story would get compensated by drama or action or even comedy than it would be great! But this is not the case! "Colic" isn't very scary! There is lack of drama (and no humor at all)! Example: The mother of the main character dies very sudden! No tears,no crying except for the baby! No funeral! No real conversations between the husband and wife about what happened! There is no show of emotion like nothing is wrong! And this is the main problem! Something bad happens and things go back to normal without any change! Sure you see the parents of the baby searching for help to cure the baby,but that's it! They visit a priest but he is not really helpful! The absence of a real dialog (especially) between the husband and wife makes it difficult to care for these persons! The explanation at the end makes it all worse! At least they could have come up with something better! The only thing that really was outstanding was the sound! The sound is the major reason that this horror is worth watching! But overall it is very average!
