Film Recommendations To Welcome Year-End, There's Black Dog And Shutter

JAKARTA - Towards the end of the year, the right time to enjoy quality entertainment with family, friends, or even yourself. If you are looking for an iconic film that can enliven the atmosphere at the end of 2024, there are two choices of films that are worth watching.

The digital streaming platform KlikFilm, again presents quality entertainment by presenting two iconic films that are ready to hypnotized the audience starting December 8, 2024.

This long-awaited film is Black Dog, a world-recognized Chinese cinematic work, as well as Shutter, a legendary horror film from Thailand that is timeless.

Black Dog tells the story of Lang (Eddy pen), an ex-convict, returning to his deserted hometown in the outskirts of the Gobi Desert after serving his sentence. After being released, Lang had to face a different life.

He got a job in a dog catcher patrol to clean up a post in the Gobi desert before the 2008 Olympics. And when Lang explored the barren landscape haunted by a herd of stray dogs he met a thin black stray dog. The dog, who seemed crazy, bit Lang, made him have a high fever and might be in danger of rabies.

After passing seven days together, the two turned out to be able to survive. Slowly the man and dog who were both wasted also formed a bond that changed their lives. Like his dog, Lang is an outside person, and their relationship reflects their own struggle for forgiveness. Lang's black dog also provided comfort for the quiet former rock star from his other misery.

Directed by Guan Hu, the film Black Dog stars well-known actors such as Edie Peng, Liya Tong, and Zhang-Ke Jia. This film successfully won the Un Certain Regard Award at the 2024 Cannes Film Festival, as proof of its extraordinary quality. With a deep and visually stunning narrative, Black Dog will certainly captivate the hearts of viewers looking for classy shows.

Meanwhile, from Thailand, KlikFilm brought back Shutter, the masterpiece of director Banjong Pisanthanakun, who previously succeeded in the film Kang Mak. This film stars Ananda Everingham, Natthaweeranuch Thongmee, Achita Sikamana, Unnop Chanpaibool.

This tense story brings an unforgettable cinematic experience, making it one of the most iconic horror films in the history of Asian cinema.

Shutter recounted that while on his way home from a friend's wedding, Gun and Jane accidentally hit a girl. Fear of being held accountable, the two fled from the place. However, nothing has been reported to the police or hospital, and things have become even strangeer since the incident.

Spirit images appear in Tun's photos, and the more Jane investigates, the more she realizes that the girl they hit was not a coincidence accident. Strange things began to happen, including neck pain that never went away and weighted up drastically but did not look fat.
