My favorite movie is The Eye Infinity by the Pang Brothers. The genre of the movie is horror. This movie takes place at Thailand and Hong Kong. This film released at the year of 2005. The plot of the movie is starting by a group of friends went to Thailand to visit one of their friend, Chong-Kwai. While on the tour, they saw an accident on the road and start telling ghost stories among their friends when returning to Chong-Kwai's house. After reaching Chong-Kwai's house, he shared with their friend a book entitled "Ten Encounters". This book is about 10 methods to see ghosts or spirits. Chong-Kwai had purchased the book from a sinister bookstore. Upon purchasing the book, the sinister bookstore warned him that not to see the last page. If not, the karma will led him to it. But at last Chong-Kwai discovered he being scammed by the sinister bookstore. Finally, the curiosity of his friend started to request for having a try to lure 'them' out.

The ten methods of lure the ghost are : -

1.) Getting a corneal transplant from a donor who has psychic ability
2.) Attempting suicide during pregnancy by wearing a red shirt
3.) Playing the Spirit Glass game
4.) Tapping chopsticks on a bowl that full with food at the junction to attract Hungry Ghost
5.) Playing hide and seek during at night while carrying a black cat
6.) Rubbing dirt from the grave on your eyes.
7.) Open an umbrella indoors
8.) Brushing your hair in front of the mirror during midnight
9.) Performing a peek-a-stoop ( bend over and look back over between your legs.
10.) Sleep while dressed in used garments for the deceased to fool the death into believing that you are one of them.

They start with the Spirit Glass game. 5 of them are playing the game. But only Kofei able to see the ghost appear during the game. After the game, Chong-Kwai mother warned them about meddling the supernatural from the underworld. But they did not listen. Soon, they proceed to next step is going to a road intersection to attract the hungry ghosts. Everybody except May are able to see the ghosts around them while tapping the bowl which full with food. May keep complaining why did she cannot see 'them'. She became very frustrated and insist to play hide and seek in the forest while carrying a black cat even though they are already freaked out. This will supposedly break the charm and find the missing person. However, Kofei had disappeared mysteriously and the black cat is found dead. In anguish, Kofei's girlfriend, April, tries to rub the dirt from the grave on her eyes but they fall out from the socket and turns to fiery red. Out of sudden, she fall to unconsciousness and Chong-Kwai's mother saved her by cleaning her eyes and advised them to leave this place except April. This is because she wanted to stay here to find her boyfriend, Kofei. One night, April tried a method to saved her boyfriend by brushing her hair in the middle of night in front of a mirror. Her fate is uncertain.

Meanwhile, Ted and may continue experiencing weird encounters. One rainy day, May finds an umbrella floating in the subway and she runs away. After that, she took a bus back home. Suddenly, her umbrella opens by itself and a basketball rolling back and forth. And she steps over it and the basketball transform to a human head and starts bit her ankle. She screams in horror on the bus but the passengers on the bus thought that she was insane because it just a ordinary basketball. While she walking to her apartment's corridor, she saw the basketball again and seems like it follows her. She performs a 'peek-a-stoop' and she saw a boy with a rotting face dribbling the ball. After that, she quickly ran back to her apartment and call Ted to come over to her apartment. Ted encounters many spirits on the way to May's apartment and he kicked the ball at the corridor that had possessed by a ghost.

Finally, they decided back to Thailand to break this curse. When they reached Thailand, May and Ted perform the last step, which is, to sleep while dressed with the traditional garments for the deceased. Finally, they successful entered the underworld and found the spirits of Kofei and April, who tell them that actually they are dead. During that time, Chong-Kwai's mother attempt to revive Ted and May but fail. This had lead to Ted and May became spirits in the underworld with Kofei and April.
