Silk

Taiwanese writer and director Su Chao-Bin manages to blend several genres such Sci-Fi, Horror, Drama and Thriller into one but it doesn't always succeed. The story about a team of scientists who have managed to capture a deadly ghost seek the help of a detective to help them with the mystery. The film starts well but gets derailed when Chao-Bin loses focuses with the many characters and subplot that could go into any direction given the genres involved. Chang Chen stars as the gifted but troubled detective but he and the talented cast can't help the inherent problems in the script. YRCinema's coverage of films on DVD.
