THE FIRST SINGAPORE, PHILIPPINES AND HONG KONG COLLABORATION ON A HORROR MOVIE - THE MAID
MediaCorp Raintree Pictures, the Media Development Authority of Singapore, MovPix International Inc (Philippines) and Dream Movie Entertainment (Hong Kong) are pleased to announce a movie collaboration - THE MAID.
THE MAID tells a horror story from Singapore. Reflecting the local culture and the lifestyle of many households dependent on maids, the filmmakers aim to produce a compelling horror movie against the unique Singapore backdrop and colour.
“THE MAID is a colourful and downright creepy spookfest replete with Teochew opera, freaked-out Filipino maids and haunting Seventh-month vibes. This movie is a very personal film for me in that it captures all the evocative and freaky things in Singapore that scare the living daylights out of me. It will be creepy shooting a horror flick in Singapore – a place so small the living are practically dwelling next door to the dead,” says Writer and Director Kelvin Tong.
THE MAID will also star MediaCorp artistes Chen Shu Cheng, Hong Hui Fang and local newcomer Benny Soh. This will be Shu ChengÂ’s first leading role in a movie and Hui FangÂ’s second movie after her debut in THAT ONE NOT ENOUGH.
seen its movie trailer? think it's going to be "exciting" to watch such show during the Chinese 7th month. -

Here goes some intro...
During the Chinese Seventh Month, the Gates of Hell open and spirits are let loose upon an unsuspected world. For 30 days, the dead walk among with the living. To protect themselves, mortals devise rules.
RULES SUCH AS:
- Do not turn back when someone calls out your name
- Do not talk to strangers on a deserted stretch of road
A 18 year-old girl from Philipphine urgently needs money for his brother back home and she has to work as a domestic maid. Working is her main priority and ghosts are the last thing on her mind.
Things started going amiss and the 18 year old unwittingly broken many rules on the first day of Chinese Seventh Month...
Life turns a nightmare for her and watch the movie to know even more! (if you dare)
and by the way, the first day of the Chinese Seventh Month is this FRIDAY; the Gates of Hell will open for spirits. so good luck to all. -
I like the first two posters above.
Philipine designers are really skilled. -
is a filipino conspiracy theory to warn all singaporeans who hire or are planning to hire maids to treat them nicely like humans or else........suffer the same fate as the cast

It's a good show, somehow managing to incoporate the many different concepts of successful horror flicks into one.
The video choreography was pretty good, should be able to hold its ground against the korean, japanese horror flicks.
On a whole, a well shot thriller with the twists that keeps you at the edge of your seat throughout!
4 stars!
