Except bad reviews everything is good.

Don't judge this movie by critic's reviews and ratings. This movie deals with horror, love, and human relationships. Something different from horror movie titles and this movie is so unique. If you are trying to deal with a ghost in an old-fashioned house this is not your taste. But if you are like to experience and enjoy a meaningful horror movie taste this; you wouldn't be disappointed at the end that's sure.

A generally cliched but still fun Thai ghost film

Working a shift at a local hospital, a pair of friends are convinced they've been witness to paranormal activity and set out on a determined quest to find out the truth about the paranormal world, forcing them deeper into a quest that the ghosts in the area aren't too fond of them discovering.

Overall, the film is quite a jarring and offsetting film. Much of this is due to a bizarre storyline that favors shifting the tone of the film quite frequently from scene to scene. The initial setup of the two working in the hospital for various altruistic reasons as one wants to be close to his comatose mother and the other more interested in the pursuit of the paranormal working there offers him provides a grounding to the characters early on. However, this melodramatic turn is broken up frequently to show that the two are indeed best friends through the use of childish, immature pranks and pratfalls around the hospital that showcase a decidedly more comedic bent to the presentation. While lighthearted and certainly of the variety that genuine friends would pull on each other, these scenes come off as quite odd when contrasted against the dramatic turns later on. Once they discover the ghosts have been visiting the hospital, all pretenses of comedy are dropped in favor of increasingly melodramatic confrontations between the two highlighting their descent into psychological madness and devotion to figuring out the truth rather than featuring a straightforward story. This factor becomes another drawback to the film that holds it back. When the switch occurs that brings the two into their quest for the truth behind the ghosts that they've been seeing, there's a decided lack of interest in what's going on that tends to make for a highly problematic and underwhelming feature. Despite turning the film into a series of enthusiastic and thoughtful conversations involving the physics of the situation against the psychological damage the quest is turning him, very little of this becomes interesting as the ghosts completely disappear from the film in favor of these conversations. They're so infrequent in place of these admittedly spirited debates that it's entirely possible to be bored during these segments while the conversations eventually bring a different change to their personalities by offering a highly dispiriting tone that is completely dull to sit through. This series of scenes here with the guys doing their discussions create a highly dispiriting downgrade against the type of sympathy that had been created beforehand with a series of revelations that we've all been aware of for the most part anyway that tends to alter our perception of the characters. These factors all combine together to lower the film somewhat. While there are some flaws, the film does have a lot to like about it. Most of these factors are based around the ghostly encounters that showcase the terrifying nature of the ghosts as their appearances are genuinely shocking. The initial encounter in the hospital where it utilizes the atmosphere of the darkened hospital to generate some really creepy visuals of the ghosts appearing out of nowhere to generate a sharp shocking sequence for a rather enjoyable starting point to the hauntings. Later scenes in the corridors of the hospital are just as effective, creating a feeling of genuine tension and terror that escalates nicely with the tension between them during their personal crises that is a fine cohesive balance. As the final half builds in intensity with the reveal of their purpose for being in the hospital and they get far more active, the energy and intensity pick up nicely with the encounters inside the hospital which are rather enjoyable overall. There's also plenty to like with the intensity of the conversations involving their search and the motivations for doing so that's painted as sympathy that's filmed quite nicely. Combined with the fantastic ghost make-up that helps their eeriness quite heavily, there are some great elements present here.

Rated Unrated/R: Graphic Violence and Language.

Average horror movie...

"Ghost Lab" is a Thriller - Horror movie in which we watch two doctors investigating the existence of ghosts after witnessing something strange in their hospital. Their research is focusing on finding some scientific proof in order to justify their hypothesis.

I have to admit that I did not have high expectations from this movie and I was not disappointed by it. I found it average due to the fact that there was not any peak moment on it but just an interesting plot at some moments. The direction which was made by Paween Purijitpanya was not something special but presented very well the main characters and how they evolved through its duration. The interpretations of both Thanapob Leeratanakachorn who played as Wee and Paris Intarakomalyasut who played as Gla were good and their combination fitted in the movie. All in all, I have to say that "Ghost Lab" is another average horror movie that presents something new but lacks on suspense.
