Enter Malaysia's Most Haunted House With VILLA NABILA

While the format may be overly familiar there's something undeniably effective going on in the trailer for director Syafiq Yusof's Villa Nabila. Presented as a documentary purporting to explore the true stories behind a notorious haunted house in Johor, Malaysia the film plays out in standard documentary format employing a mix of talking head interviews, reconstructed footage and supposed 'actual' footage from the site and perhaps its this blend - the acknowledgement of the artificial - that restores some effectiveness to the format. Either that or it's just that Yusof is shooting the hell out of his story. Whichever it may be, this looks like a very entertaining entry into the mock-doc canon.
