The main character of this movie is Chen, who works as a projectionist in a theater and has promised to make a bootleg of a heavily-hyped upcoming film called "Evil Spirit", which is about a village woman named Shomba who was hung to death after she was discovered to have been kidnapping children. Chen's friend, Peoll, inexplicably disappears after trying to pirate the movie himself, and when Chen tries to investigate this, he eventually learns the dark truth about "Evil Spirit" being a cursed film, and has to get help from his ex-girlfriend Som to stop Shomba from taking any more lives... not in "Evil Spirit", but in the real world.
