Ah Dai comes from a family that runs a prestigious orthodox temple. His childhood sweetheart, Yufan, is desperate to locate her missing aunt. In his attempt to help, Ah Dai agrees to participate in a special ritual that his schoolmates believe could help them seek assistance from the gods to grant their desires. However, they are lured into praying to evil forces instead. As his schoolmates die one after another, Ah Dai tries to use his gift to exorcise evil to save his friends. At the very end, he faces a completely demonized Yufan and must fight her to save the neighborhood.

Audience Reviews

patient1 6/10 Nov 21, 2025
Taiwanese Mysticism is so new to me, but something feels off with our main character. I'm starting to understand our characters hesitation, and this is far from anything I've witnessed before, and it looks dangerous.
I had no idea that Spirit Communication was so widespread with varied cultures, but I find it fascinating, to say the least.
It appears as if things for a few of our characters had gotten completely out of their control, and horrible events are taking place now.
It looks as if something sinister was going on in the background, all the while people are praying.
Gotta love it when a Horror movie makes you smile on the end, wicked, but still a smile.
