Curse of Lola (2005)
Member Rating:  
When the star of China's most anticipated musical is brutally slain on opening night and an introverted understudy is quickly cast to take her place, the mayhem that follows leads the shy young replacement begins to believe that a curse has been cast over the production in director Li Hong's stage-bound frightener. Everyone wants the role of Lola, but it was the beautiful young Tian (Tian Yuan) who landed the role when the original actress fell prey to a mysterious killer. Haunted by the traumas of her childhood and isolated from her fellow actors, Tian seeks comfort in the strong arms of her boyfriend, a lowly gaffer named Zhen (Francis Ng). The sadistic killer isn't finished yet though, and as the bodies start to pile up, Tian begins to suspect that the killer may know more about her than she previously suspected. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi

    This was a pretty good movie, until the end ... where you say out loud, "That's it ?!"

    Starts out with enough intrigue to get you interested but it never truly becomes an interesting film. Characters don't develop, nor do they have any traits that are particularly likeable (or hateable). I learned more from the synopses than I did from the whole film and I watched 3/4 of it. Which reminds me, for a 90 minute film, it felt like it would never end. I'm all for subtlety and murder mysteries but this film fails to entertain.

    A theatre star is murdered in her dressing room in this slow-burning mystery flick starring Francis Ng. The cinematography and soundtrack are very dreamy, creating a sense of impending doom throughout. The story is also well-written, engaging, and focuses on distrust as the key element.
