    Directed by Nonzee Nimibutr.

    Nang-nak is based on an old Thai folklore from what i heard. This beautiful & touching movie tells us the story of a young wife who loved her husband very much that she couldnt bear to separate with him. She actually died during the process of her giving birth but because of her love for the husband, she returns back, as a ghost, to live with him.

    This movie makes me learn something which is the power of love is stronger than death.

    A great movie. Those who have never watched it before, please do give some time watching. Recommended :)

    Nang Nak is definately one of the best movies I have ever seen! I give it five stars and recommend it to anyone interested in a moving tale of love crossing the boundries.. but it is a ghost story, so you better be ready for disturbing images! Its based on a Thai legend, and is full of thai life and mythos... so cimatically beautiful.. Mak leaves for war, leaving behind his pregnant wife Nak. He gets injured in the war, and she goes through the labours of childbirth. when he returns he takes up house again, however, both Nak and their baby died in childbirth, and he is totally unaware that he is living with ghosts. his village tries to intervene, but he wont listen, and ghosts get bitchy when they dont get their way.. a monk tries to speak with Mak, and Mak eventually takes his advice. this is such a sad, moving, culturally beautiful movie... I really recommend it to you all!! A warning tho, it contains strong supernatural themes, so if you are delicate, you might perfer to stick with the chick flicks!

    This is the only Thai movie that I have watched 3 times... There is something I still do not understand from this movie.

    One of the greatest ghost stories I've ever seen. The imagery in this is amazing, the love story is quite touching and the ghost story is very scary. Truly a great film.

    Based on an actual Thai legend. An interesting look into the culture as well as a good ghost story.
