No one told me it was a boring comedy.
0.0MHz had neither the atmosphere, nor the scares, nor the visuals. It did not have interesting characters nor the plot…. So what did it have? Snapshot filters and killing hair. Even the 0.0MHz from the titles was barely relevant and the whole movie could do without it, changing more or less nothing.It was honestly, simply boring. The kids had either zero personality or awful one - I did not care if anyone survived. All the conflicts were not set up in any proper way. Truth to be told, they were not set up in an awful way either - they just dropped it all in random dialogues at random times.
Best aspect of the movie? Eunji cursing the demon ghost - the whole final face off was so ridiculous I could not stop laughing.
I can’t even talk about the performances, because the writing and directing was so bad, I am not sure how much of the mediocre delivery really is on the actor, and how much on the other people involved in the production.
Overall, don’t waste your time.

Is it Scary? - Pros & Cons
Total jumpscare scenes: around 6 scenesNormal jumpscare scene(s): 3 (expected, slowly, far from the screen, creepy but heart-safe)
Mid jumpscare scene(s): 2 (unexpected ghost/scary characters appearance, slowly)
Extreme jumpscare scene(s): 1 (unexpected, fast, eyes to eyes with you, filling the screen, with SFX)
Pros:
- Apink's Eunji. Her acting is so good as always, I love her character in here.
- Nice plot twist.
- It's actually less scary, good for a scaredy-cat like me hohoho. Just watch out for an extreme jumpscare.
- The place they are shooting at really fits the theme. It builds a creepy atmosphere well.
Cons:
- I could say this is rated 16+ but no nudity. It would have been good if this movie has no romance aspect.
- Unsolved conflict.
- Somehow, there's a plot-jump. (Why this happened to this character? What is actually happening?).
- Unnecessary jumpscare (the extreme one).
- Some cheap CGIs are there.

I admit this came up on my recommendations a lot and from the first time I saw it it peaked my interest but I could never find out much about it. Usually a cover and synopsis have to draw me in. It's the bookworm in me, I guess. Lol. But like I said, there was just something about it. The cover is just like "you know you want to watch me."and yes, yes I did. Lol from what I have read about it (and it could be wrong for all I know) is that this movie was actually only filmed within a few months. Which really blew me away because to me I would have guessed it took the average amount to at least a year. But nope. That says a lot to me as well because the acting was off the charts amazing. I haven't heard of any of the actors (that I know of) but if I based them off just this movie, I would want to see more of their works.
The storyline was really interesting. It's the average "haunting/ghost hunting" but they managed to make it creepier. Whoever did makeup needs a raise. The only thing I didn't like about the storyline was, it was open in a lot of places and left me with a lot of questions. From the start we don't really know how or why it's really there and even later when it gives viewers a chance to hear what COULD BE the story of the ghost, they kinda blew it by wasting time. She talks about wanting to make people pay but doesn't really say why? Which makes me wonder why they call it a ghost and not a demon then. Because usually ghosts have reasons and say why, demons just want people to suffer? I don't know. All I do know is I would have liked a little more explanation. I loved the jump scares. It's probably the only way I ever really get "scared". When they happened in this movie - it made me actually scream. Even with all the lights on in my house it caught me off guard. Haha
That ending!! oh my GAH!!! That ending!!! I didn't see that coming! That ... really took me by surprise. Usually I can kinda tell how something will end but this ending left me shocked like "Are you for real?!" Lol Hell yes! I love a shocking ending.
