Coming out in October this year, just in time to celebrate the Halloween, is Singapore made horror flick directed by Gilbert Chan.

Playing with key components for atmospheric horror such as secluded island, the military and a spooky urban legend, it looks like the production values of “23:59” are pretty high for a local production and the cinematography also look solid based on the released teaser trailers.

The official synopsis:
A rumor had been circulating like wild fire amongst the soldiers. A mad woman living on the island had died at the exact hour of 23:59, and it is believed that her spirit had returned to haunt the soldiers at the exact same time.
One of the recruits, Tan, the introverted platoon outcast, is adamant that he will be the next victim of the mad woman's spirit. He tries to convince his buddy Jeremy that the woman's spirit has been visiting him every night. Jeremy laughs it off and claims that there are no such things as ghosts in this world. They only exist because of Tan's overactive imagination.
However, during the 24 km road march for the platoon in the forest, Tan was found dead by the river, with his limbs contorted in a strange way and an expression of deep fear on his face. Overwhelmed with guilt, Jeremy decides to investigate Tan's death, convinced that it was not an accident as what the military officers believe. Little does he know that the truth behind Tan's death will unearth a terrible dark secret of the island and he will have to confront his deepest fears in order to find the truth.

And now, the legendary spirit will appear again in the 22nd remake where it will be told through the most modern technology in movie industry called 3D.

Many years ago in an old district of Bangkok, Phra Khanong, there lived a young couple, Tid and Mae Nak. Mae Nak was expecting her first child when her husband Tid was drafted into the army to fight against the Burmese. While Tid was away, unfortunately both mother and child died during childbirth. Mae Nak’s love for her husband was so great and her spirit so strong that she returned as a ghost and both she and her child assumed human form. Tid, unaware of these events, returned home and life for the young couple resumed as normal until one of Tid’s friends told him about his wife’s death. Tid did not believe him until one day, whilst eating supper together, a spoon was dropped and instinctively Mae Nak stretched out her arm to an extraordinary length to recover it.

Every night Mae Nak would stand outside the temple where her husband was hiding and scream and wail for his return.

Here’s the nice lengthy plot synopsis for the movie:
"Anake is the only descendent of the Phram priesthood, an ancient bloodline. He is responsible for keeping the memory of his ancestors and their traditions alive. But he has run away from his duty to live a simple life with his wife and daughter in modern Bangkok. One day, a wealthy man called Rout calls on Anake for help, asking him to break a curse that has returned from the past. The female members of his family have become deformed, their limbs twisting in painful contortions. Even the children are not spared. Anake is hesitant to re-enter the domain of dark arts, but is persuaded by the money Rout can pay to secure the future of his own family. He returns to his childhood home to research the curse and discover how it was once stopped.
Anake learns that 200 years ago, before Bangkok was established, there was a young woman who swore revenge against Rout's bloodline for eternity. After death, her body refused to decay, as if willpower was maintaining both it and her curse. Anake's great-great-grandfather sealed the angry spirit of the woman in a secret place. In the family library, Anake finds two ancient books: one details how to trap evil spirits, the other details nine places in Bangkok where the rituals must be performed. But only one page of the second book remains, describing the ninth place where the woman's spirit might lie. The only clue that may lead him further is a painting of the woman on the wall of the family temple and the few cryptic lines of a poem. Anake begins his terrifying journey to find the nine secret places, surviving encounters with evil spirits who hold vital clues and desire for revenge. Unexpectedly, his own young daughter is struck down with the curse, twisting her limbs in agony."
