The plot follows a David Blaine style magician called Fei Lo (the always interesting Francis Ng, recently in “Exiled”) who retreats with his girlfriend (Mainland Chinese actress Daisy Yang) to an isolated mansion in the countryside to recuperate after his latest stunt almost costs him his life. Whilst this might sound like a good idea on paper, unfortunately poor traumatised Fei is haunted by memories of his abusive father, and things take a turn for the worse after his girlfriend unwittingly accepts a job for him to make a statue of dear old dad. It goes without saying that the two are soon experiencing visions of a mysterious long haired woman (Michelle Yip) and a creepy little girl, both of whom seem to be connected to their rather rude and obtuse neighbour Mr. Yue (Eddie Cheung, recently in Johnnie To’s “Election” and sequel) who keeps insisting that they move before something bad happens.
Indeed, “The Closet” would arguably have been a better film without any of the wholly unnecessary horror elements and supernatural subplots awkwardly forced into its first half, though even with these gaffs it remains an engaging and moderately chilling effort which should be savoured by thrill-starved genre fans or anyone who enjoys seeing Francis Ng chew the scenery.
