Within 8 minutes you can figure out what is going on. But it takes the
director almost forever (85 minutes) to reveal the story officially to
the viewer as if someone still hasn't a clue by then even when a
certain event gets repeated over and over again. And if there had been
some twist at the end or something else to compensate than I could have
forgiven the director for this mistake. Sadly there aren't any
surprises to be found in this movie. Sigaw started out pretty good by
building a tense atmosphere only to ruin it with loud sound effects.
The main character early on hears but also sees things. And this is the
part that doesn't make sense. The place he lives is in a dump.
Apparently he is one of the few people who are staying in the building.
All the other tenants have fled. Still he refuses to leave his precious
unit. Why? That never gets explained. (Well, he mentions he has bought
the unit. But somehow this reason doesn't convince me enough since he
has a very sweet mother who wants him to return to his old home.) It
would have created some sympathy towards this character if we
understood why it is so necessary for him to stay. Now he just seems
very stupid who has an even more stupid (but good looking) girlfriend
called Pinky who does things a normal person in their position never
would do. The whole time we have to endure the lack of real thrilling
moments combined with the stupid actions of these characters. If you
managed to stay awake till the ending than you'll find out that there
is no reward for doing so since the ending is complete abysmal and the
most stupid of endings I have ever seen. I hate to say it but there is
nothing that Sigaw offers that is worth watching. Waste of time!
