If you do something on the 7th and you did something wrong, the maid (Rosa) can see ghosts. Could have been better with subtitles and better screenplay. The frightening scenes were predictable and it was a coincidence the master was present during a possessed girl kills herself. Nothing really scary and the plot just like a child's fairy tale when narrated. So many deaths and unlikable figures. The Maid is a lackluster horror flick that forces us to be scared, but instead laugh out how ridiculous some scenes were.

An horror offering from Singapore that has your standard J-horror fare, but gives it an interesting twist by throwing in an outsider (the titular maid). The culture clash drives the film, even if you guess the end, it keeps it interesting.
