Coffin The
|
| 00:00:11 |
This story is inspired by a trueThai |
| 00:00:15 |
literally means: "Lie in Coffin, to rid |
| 00:00:44 |
This is perhap's as close as |
| 00:00:48 |
I'm lying in the coffin... |
| 00:00:51 |
a funeral is being performed on me. |
| 00:00:53 |
But I am not dead! |
| 00:00:55 |
Just following a secular custom |
| 00:01:00 |
It's believed to help one cheat death, |
| 00:01:03 |
and get rid of bad luck. |
| 00:01:05 |
Many find it hard to believe. |
| 00:01:08 |
But I do... |
| 00:01:09 |
and I'm not the only one! |

| 00:03:21 |
Bullshit! |
| 00:03:25 |
After the monks had chanted, |
| 00:03:27 |
I can feel... |
| 00:03:29 |
bad karma leaving my body... |
| 00:03:33 |
when I got out of the coffin, |
| 00:03:36 |
I felt I've been given |
| 00:03:42 |
My daughter was in a coma. |
| 00:03:43 |
So I wrote her name |
| 00:03:46 |
and prayed for her when |
| 00:03:50 |
One week later, |
| 00:03:52 |
she came out of the coma. |
| 00:03:54 |
Even the doctor's |
| 00:03:57 |
My mother had liver cancer, |
| 00:04:00 |

| 00:04:03 |
So we brought her |
| 00:04:07 |

Jack is very stressed! He thinks |
| 00:13:28 |
Don't be a runaway bride pls. |
| 00:13:36 |
Do you feel better? |
| 00:13:39 |
Yeah. |
| 00:14:36 |
You look half dead. |
| 00:14:39 |
How do you know I was here? |
| 00:14:42 |
In emergency like this, |
| 00:14:47 |
Is there a last dialled |
| 00:14:51 |
Can you be this smart |
| 00:14:55 |
How're you feeling? |
| 00:14:56 |
I am alright. |
| 00:14:58 |
Yeah so...so |
| 00:15:01 |
Major case of claustrophobia, |
| 00:15:03 |
sensory depravation trivials, |
| 00:15:07 |
which in turn lead |
| 00:15:14 |
The last bit is my own analysis. |
| 00:15:19 |
I didn't know you believe |
| 00:15:23 |
You did it for Mariko, right? |
| 00:15:27 |
I--I just did what I |
| 00:15:30 |
you don't have anything to lose. |
| 00:15:33 |
You must stop that and |
| 00:15:40 |
Unless... |

I'll get one of then to |

Your dinner's been heated up. |
| 00:18:30 |
Are you okay? |
| 00:18:40 |
Sue, I think I need some |
| 00:18:48 |
Do I look like a groom now? |
| 00:18:51 |
You can't even put on a tie properly. |
| 00:18:54 |
That's why you must marry me. |
| 00:18:55 |
To help you put on your tie? |
| 00:18:58 |
- Uh-hum! |
| 00:19:03 |
Why did you say yes? |
| 00:19:06 |
I don't know, I was drunk! |
| 00:19:09 |
Come on, tell me one good reason. |
| 00:19:12 |
Because your father is filthy rich. |
| 00:19:15 |
That's not a good reason. |
| 00:19:17 |
Because you're good in bed. |
| 00:19:21 |
That's even worse. |
| 00:19:27 |
Because you need someone to |
| 00:19:48 |
Sue, how're you feeling? |
| 00:19:51 |
Nan, how come you're here? |
| 00:19:54 |
They call me at the university. They |
| 00:19:58 |
Why didn't you let me know |
| 00:20:01 |
I'm sorry, it was a |
| 00:20:04 |
Sue, as long as I know you, |
| 00:20:06 |
You've never been a last |
| 00:20:11 |
Sawasdee ka doctor. |
| 00:20:12 |
Sawasdee khrap. |
| 00:20:14 |
How're you feeling, Miss Wong? |
| 00:20:17 |
It hurts. |
| 00:20:18 |
You are very lucky. |
| 00:20:21 |
We were afraid your rib might've |
| 00:20:24 |
But I've checked all the films, |
| 00:20:26 |
you're fine. |
| 00:20:28 |
It's just a bruise, not to worry. |
| 00:20:31 |
It wouldn't have matter anyway. |
| 00:20:33 |
What do you mean? |
| 00:20:36 |
Doctor, didn't you see those cancer cells |
| 00:20:38 |
in my lung when you did the x-ray? |
| 00:20:39 |
You have cancer? |
| 00:20:42 |
There's nothing wrong |
| 00:20:45 |
Now, you just have to rest, okay? |
| 00:20:56 |
Sue, I don't understand. |
| 00:21:00 |
What is this? |
| 00:21:03 |
Why didn't you tell me anything? |
| 00:21:26 |
What happened to this patient? |
| 00:21:29 |
Oh, we transfer her to room 406, |
| 00:21:31 |
she awaken last night. |
| 00:21:33 |
It is at the end of the hallway. |
| 00:21:35 |
Thanks, thank you... |
| 00:21:48 |
Make yourself at home, okay. |
| 00:21:59 |
Thanks! |
| 00:22:02 |
I still can't believe why the |
| 00:22:06 |
It's probably gonna be back in my |
| 00:22:08 |
It won't. |
| 00:22:11 |
You're really such a lucky girl, remember. |
| 00:22:14 |
Listen all you gotta do is |
| 00:22:16 |
and be a good wife to that lucky man. |
| 00:22:20 |
Yeah! |
| 00:22:21 |
Take care of your flight for you tomorrow. |
| 00:22:24 |
Thanks mum. |
| 00:23:10 |
Jack! |
| 00:23:13 |
Jack!! |
| 00:23:16 |
Oh...you're here. |
| 00:23:18 |
When did you get here? |
| 00:23:20 |
I'm sorry! |
| 00:23:27 |
Did Nan call you? |
| 00:23:30 |
I missed you so much. |
| 00:23:32 |
I know... miss you. |
| 00:23:40 |
Yes, Joanne? |
| 00:23:41 |
I'm fine! |
| 00:23:43 |
Don't worry about me, Jack's here. |
| 00:23:45 |
Everything's okay, |
| 00:23:48 |
What're you talking about? |
| 00:23:54 |
Look I--I, Joanne, I'm gonna've |
| 00:24:03 |
Is everything alright? |
| 00:24:07 |
No. |
| 00:24:59 |
I'm just gonna go look for Nan. |
| 00:25:33 |
I'm sorry. |
| 00:25:35 |
No, it's Joanne. |
| 00:25:38 |
Sue... |
| 00:25:43 |
Jack was in an accident. |
| 00:25:50 |
He's dead, Sue. |
| 00:25:52 |
I'm so sorry. |
| 00:26:00 |
Jack is in the bedroom. |
| 00:26:26 |
There is nobody there. |
| 00:26:58 |
Sue what is it, |
| 00:27:03 |
Yes, nobody. |
| 00:27:37 |
I thought I was going to lose you. |
| 00:27:40 |
I am here... |
| 00:27:42 |
alive and well. |
| 00:28:21 |
It's so nice up here. |
| 00:28:24 |
We can always come |
| 00:28:28 |
Honeymoon? |
| 00:28:30 |
I'm sorry... |
| 00:28:32 |
A little presumption. |
| 00:28:36 |
No... you're not. |
| 00:28:41 |
You mean...? |
| 00:28:46 |
Yes! |
| 00:28:49 |
Are you sure? |
| 00:28:51 |
You mean you are not? |
| 00:28:54 |
I am but.... |
| 00:28:56 |
Like you always say that I can |
| 00:29:01 |
Don't worry, I won't fall into a comatose. |
| 00:29:08 |
You can be in a coma as |
| 00:29:14 |
I mean-- |
| 00:29:18 |
Thank you for always taking care of me. |
| 00:29:31 |
It's getting chilly, let's go inside. |
| 00:29:34 |
No, I want to stay out |
| 00:29:37 |
Okay, I'll get you something to wear. |
| 00:29:41 |
Thanks. |
| 00:31:02 |
Mariko? |
| 00:31:05 |
Mariko! |
| 00:31:07 |
- No--no! |
| 00:31:10 |
What's wrong with you... |
| 00:34:35 |
'Jack' |
| 00:34:44 |
How's she doing? |
| 00:34:46 |
Still shaken. |
| 00:34:49 |
That's why I want to spent |
| 00:34:52 |
You know Chris... |
| 00:34:55 |
and it's best we leave it lying too. |
| 00:34:58 |
It is the same woman. |
| 00:35:00 |
What? |
| 00:35:02 |
The woman I saw... |
| 00:35:03 |
Is the same woman Mariko saw. |
| 00:35:06 |
How is that possible? |
| 00:35:08 |
I also don't understand. |
| 00:35:10 |
Do you know who she is? |
| 00:35:18 |
Maybe the coffin you laid in was hers. |
| 00:35:24 |
Not possible, |
| 00:35:25 |
The coffins were new. |
| 00:35:28 |
You sure they used new ones? |

| 00:37:11 |
Professor Tananchai, |
| 00:37:13 |
to see me and my friend's today. |
| 00:37:16 |
You're welcome! |
| 00:37:18 |
I'm really sorry to hear about your fiance. |
| 00:37:21 |
Thank you. |
| 00:37:22 |
Professor Tananchai has been |
| 00:37:25 |
in cases of people |
| 00:37:26 |
who've met with strange |
| 00:37:29 |
I am not an expert. |
| 00:37:31 |
I just got personally interested |
| 00:37:36 |
What happen to him? |
| 00:37:42 |
This was taken less than an hour |
| 00:37:46 |
We were on holiday together, |
| 00:37:50 |
Joe and I were competing who |
| 00:37:54 |
Just to impress the girls, you know. |
| 00:37:59 |
Both of us were in the |
| 00:38:03 |
he was trailing behind me. |
| 00:38:04 |
And then-- |
| 00:38:06 |
... he's gone. |
| 00:38:07 |
Joe? |
| 00:38:10 |
Joe!! |
| 00:38:25 |
At Joe's funeral, his mother was |
| 00:38:31 |
After his body was cremated... |
| 00:38:33 |
she finally confided in me, |
| 00:38:36 |
and told me why. |
| 00:38:41 |
I cause the death of my son. |
| 00:38:45 |
I found out I had stomach cancer. |
| 00:38:48 |
But I didn't tell anyone in my family. |
| 00:38:52 |
I didn't want to worry them. |
| 00:38:54 |
The doctor said it was terminal, |
| 00:38:57 |
and I don't have long to live. |
| 00:39:00 |
Later someone told me... |
| 00:39:03 |
about the coffin ceremony. |
| 00:39:07 |
I didn't believe in these things. |
| 00:39:10 |
But then I thought, why not? |
| 00:39:15 |
That is when I went to the ceremony. |
| 00:39:19 |
When death is right in front of you... |
| 00:39:22 |
you try to evade it. |
| 00:39:25 |
After the coffin ceremony, |
| 00:39:27 |
I did not feel any difference. |
| 00:39:29 |
But the doctor told me... |
| 00:39:32 |
my stomach cancer is gone. |
| 00:39:35 |
How do you explain, |
| 00:39:38 |
this and Joe's death... |
| 00:39:40 |
Is there any relation? |
| 00:39:45 |
Joe died on the same day that the doctor |
| 00:39:50 |
The doctor told me... |
| 00:39:54 |
that my cancer is gone. |
| 00:40:02 |
You have to know... |
| 00:40:05 |
you cannot escape retribution and bad luck. |
| 00:40:13 |
You can only pass it on to your loved ones. |
| 00:40:25 |
Please mommy, everything is fine now! |
| 00:40:29 |
Did you just see? |
| 00:40:31 |
What is it? |
| 00:40:33 |
Just now! |

Hush my baby and do not cry... |

May! |

Baby! |

Baby! |
| 00:45:31 |
My baby! |
| 00:45:34 |
Give me back my child! |
| 00:45:36 |
Give me back my child... |
| 00:46:32 |
Hey, are you alright? |
| 00:46:43 |
Have you been able to |
| 00:46:45 |
there's any links between the ritual |
| 00:46:50 |
All I could do is to collect |
| 00:46:53 |
recorded actual cases |
| 00:46:59 |
Surachai Chuchart... 43. |
| 00:47:01 |
went into the coffin with colon cancer-- |
| 00:47:04 |
on the 17 of July 2004. |
| 00:47:07 |
Experience spontaneous |
| 00:47:11 |
No further record of mishap. |
| 00:47:14 |
Sukhontha Glin-ngam... 67, |
| 00:47:17 |
went to ritual on the |
| 00:47:22 |
Heart problem markedly |
| 00:47:26 |
Grand-daughter had a bad fall, |
| 00:47:30 |
Had any of the cases encountered, |
| 00:47:32 |
paranormal experiences after the ritual? |
| 00:47:37 |
There was only one. |
| 00:47:39 |
It happened 5 years ago. |
| 00:47:42 |
But I'm not allowed to tell |
| 00:47:45 |
without the subject's prior permission. |
| 00:48:00 |
Hey... |
| 00:48:02 |
Why did you go into forbidden area? |
| 00:48:05 |
I saw a woman entering the area. |
| 00:48:07 |
No females are kept in here! |
| 00:48:10 |
So it must be a lady ghost!! |
| 00:48:20 |
Why do you look so pale? |
| 00:48:23 |
Nothing... nothing of importance. |
| 00:48:30 |
How long have you been a grave caredigger? |
| 00:48:34 |
Even before you were born! |
| 00:48:39 |
Taking care of the dead... |
| 00:48:42 |
makes me treasure my life. |
| 00:49:03 |
How many bodies have you cremated? |
| 00:49:06 |
3248 including the one inside. |
| 00:49:11 |
Did you cremate a woman and child recently? |
| 00:49:29 |
You want me to get you on a |
| 00:49:32 |
Thanks. |
| 00:49:38 |
Isn't this's like our |
| 00:49:40 |
Me drying your hair... |
| 00:49:43 |
sleeping in the same room. |
| 00:49:46 |
Having instant noodles. |
| 00:49:48 |
Wearing the same clothes. |
| 00:49:50 |
Missing the same classes. |
| 00:49:52 |
Sharing the same boyfriend. |
| 00:49:57 |
I'm so sorry Sue, |
| 00:50:00 |
It's alright! |
| 00:50:03 |
I mean... |
| 00:50:06 |
my father died of cancer. |
| 00:50:11 |
So I was determined not |
| 00:50:14 |
I eat well... |
| 00:50:16 |
I take good care of my health. |
| 00:50:18 |
I do exercise... |
| 00:50:20 |
I even become a dietician |
| 00:50:21 |
so that I could advise other people |
| 00:50:27 |
You are well now. |
| 00:50:31 |
Yeah.... but Jack is not. |
| 00:50:36 |
Jack's gone. |
| 00:50:40 |
He's gone and it's all |
| 00:50:43 |
Don't say that. |
| 00:50:45 |
When I was in the coffin, |
| 00:50:48 |
why could it be Jack! |
| 00:50:51 |
He smokes all the times. |
| 00:50:56 |
Why couldn't it be Jack? |
| 00:51:02 |
It's so unfair. |
| 00:51:16 |
I am so sorry. |
| 00:51:19 |
It's okay. |
| 00:51:21 |
It's okay. |
| 00:51:33 |
Tell you what-- |
| 00:51:36 |
I better go with you to |
| 00:51:40 |
Thank you. |
| 00:51:43 |
My pleasure! |
| 00:51:56 |
I'm just going to get dressed. |
| 00:52:01 |
You can take whatever |
| 00:52:58 |
What do you want from me? |
| 00:53:02 |
What do you want from me? |
| 00:53:06 |
What do you want from me? |
| 00:53:35 |
I have to see Professor Tananchai again. |
| 00:53:37 |
Please! |
| 00:55:14 |
Chris! |
| 00:55:35 |
'Wat Dhammajakdaram' |
| 00:55:51 |
I've cremated a lot of bodies... |
| 00:55:53 |
never met with anything unusual. |
| 00:55:58 |
None we could not burn. |
| 00:56:00 |
But there still are some preparation problems. |
| 00:56:16 |
Like the furnace door that is stuck, |
| 00:56:18 |
and the burner could not lit. |
| 00:56:20 |
Or the coffin kept shifting. |
| 00:56:23 |
Then we bury them here. |
| 00:56:27 |
They should be waiting for you. |
| 00:58:35 |
Chris!! |
| 00:58:37 |
Chris... |
| 00:58:38 |
Chris! |
| 00:58:41 |
Chris... |
| 00:58:44 |
No!!! Chris? |
| 00:58:47 |
Chris? |
| 00:58:54 |
Chris! |
| 00:58:57 |
Chris. |
| 00:58:59 |
Chris? |
| 00:59:01 |
No! |
| 00:59:02 |
Chris! |
| 01:00:19 |
Mariko? |
| 01:00:32 |
Mariko! |
| 01:00:34 |
Mariko? |
| 01:00:59 |
Okay... |
| 01:01:01 |
Okay! |
| 01:01:04 |
What should I do now? |
| 01:01:08 |
You lie in the coffin once more. |
| 01:02:15 |
It's because of death that you're able to live. |
| 01:02:19 |
You shouldn't wait until a loved |
| 01:02:27 |
Death is not death, |
| 01:02:35 |
Death before dying, is death that will never die. |
| 01:02:49 |
Sawasdee khrap. |
| 01:02:51 |
How are you, Chris? |
| 01:02:53 |
I am well. |
| 01:02:54 |
This is Nan. |
| 01:02:55 |
- Sawasdee ka. |
| 01:02:58 |
And Sue. |
| 01:03:23 |
Professor Tananchai told me about your lost. |
| 01:03:26 |
I'm sorry. |
| 01:03:35 |
Chris, why did all this things happen? |
| 01:03:43 |
The wheel is spinning-- |
| 01:03:47 |
I guess because we distrupted it. |
| 01:03:54 |
And how did you fix it? |
| 01:03:58 |
I didn't! |
| 01:04:02 |
Mariko went into a coma, |
| 01:04:05 |
same night I found May's body. |
| 01:04:09 |
She never came back. |
| 01:04:16 |
She died 5 years ago. |
| 01:04:19 |
I'm sorry, Chris-- |
| 01:04:21 |
It's okay. |
| 01:04:26 |
You know, my parents died |
| 01:04:31 |
And the idea of people leaving me, |
| 01:04:34 |
had always scared me |
| 01:04:39 |
I'm sorry... |
| 01:04:40 |
I guess I'm not much help too. |
| 01:04:43 |
Yes you are! |
| 01:10:39 |
I am sorry, May. |
| 01:10:44 |
If I had known I will harm the both of you. |
| 01:10:50 |
I would not have joined the coffin ceremony. |
| 01:11:01 |
It's not Mariko's fault. |
| 01:11:14 |
He could have been a good man. |
| 01:11:20 |
When I got home... |
| 01:11:28 |
the house was on fire. |
| 01:11:36 |
I wanted to save him. |
| 01:11:43 |
But I failed to do. |
| 01:11:49 |
You left me because of him? |
| 01:12:02 |
If he was your child, |
| 01:12:12 |
I would have stayed behind. |
| 01:12:16 |
I am sorry. |
| 01:12:33 |
Chris.... |
| 01:12:39 |
I'm going to miss you. |
| 01:12:46 |
Me too! |
| 01:13:11 |
I have to leave now. |
| 01:13:29 |
Will we meet again? |
| 01:14:28 |
I had a relasped of cancer, |
| 01:14:30 |
a few weeks after I went |
| 01:14:34 |
Since that day, |
| 01:14:40 |
I have been going for |
| 01:14:43 |
It's not the best thing |
| 01:14:47 |
--I guess the wheel's spinning, |
| 01:14:52 |
and I don't want to interrupt it! |
| 01:15:35 |
Do I look like your groom yet? |
