4/10
Another Extremely Mediocre Asian Horror Film...
25 November 2006
Warning: Spoilers
The Pang brothers have done some notable work that I've seen. BANKOK DANGEROUS is a GREAT film, THE EYE is loved by many, but I thought it was lame. AB-NORMAL BEAUTY is another predictable and relatively lame Asian horror film, in my opinion. Granted, I'm pretty much a gore/sleaze/exploit fan, so maybe some of the "finer" nuances are wasted on a viewer such as myself, but oh well...that's just how it is.

A female student photographer takes pictures of a car-wreck scene that changes her outlook on "art". She becomes obsessed with death and photographing death-scenes and a bunch of boring sh!t happens until the relatively derivative and predictable ending...

I got nothing' really to say about AB-NORMAL BEAUTY. I'm sure Asian horror bandwagon-jumpers will probably jizz their shorts over this one, I found it dull and with no real redeeming value, other than some decent photography. I found it to be a mix between SAW and MUZAN E, with neither of the strong-points of either film. If you love everything that Tartan puts out, then have at it. If you've seen enough of this sort of thing, then you probably don't need to see any more...4/10
