silk be a mishmash of science fiction and horror which doesn not work in either field . some scientist have capture a ghost boy in a room and want to study it . they bring in a super soldier type guy to help them and he proceed to investigate the history behind the boy death . the special effect in the movie start out ok and but get progressively bad a the movie near the end until eventually it get more and more ridiculous with each death of another character . the capper be when a ghost lady come out of a bowl of noodle soup . i find it hard to believe the director could think this scene be go to be scary or effective and what be he think . the science be only hint at and be explain away in a cursory fashion and it would have be more interesting to expand on the strange science theme instead of go for typical cheap scare which be what the movie devolve to in the conclusion . the movie have a lot of unnecessary subplots that take away from the atmosphere which can not decide between horror or science fiction or philosophy and end up be a confused patchwork that doesn not work or jell together . i think the lead scientist character ( he be on a quest to be a ghost ) be play too cheesy and it be hard to take him seriously . although this movie have some creative idea it have too many drawback to rate it high .
