Hm. how to rate this one. actually liked it quite a bit, i thought it was very charming for what it was and had some cool visuals and lighting. unfortunately all the stories were very loosely wrapped up and not quite as satisfying as id hoped for. a bit dissapointing compared to herman yau's other work (of what ive seen at least) where the ending has been what left the biggest impression. i also feel like the intent was kinda unclear. think of others before you commit suicide? maybe? for such a serious topic i wish it had been cut out a bit more clearly and had been handled a bit differently.
gonna have to rethink my rating at a later point depending on how it ages within me. -
Crying in the kitchen because I forgot to cook the rice. This hits harder than it has any right to.

Honestly, the plane synopsis of this film did not prepare me for what I watched lol.
It was pretty good though.
About half-way through I thought to myself, gosh this is a hot mess, because it seemed like it didn't really have a clear idea of where it was going, but thankfully in the last 20 minutes it all came together and I really liked it.
Another point for Louis Koo for not being the bad guy that I think he always is haha.
-
The first hour of this is flat out terrible, but the final segment of this anthology, which I believe is part of the Troublesome Night series, brings some genuine pathos, as Louis Koo, Lam Suet and Kingdom Yuen bring a touch of class, warmth, and sadness to proceedings. On the whole though, it looks cheap, it isn't scary, and is a major dud in the usually reliable Herman Yau filmography. Then again, what would you expect from Troublesome Night 23 or whatever this is.
-
Wow, Herman Yau, way to bring this mediocre franchise back from the gutter and end it on such a high note.
-
The moment when Louis Koo's character starts crying over how he forgets how to cook rice; that is the most poignant and funniest moment in the film.
The rest follows suit.

World of Horror 2021 - Hong Kong
Always Be With You is a horror movie from the same man that directed the extremely revolting The Sleep Curse. It follows a group of people involved in a tragic accident, and what happens to them in the aftermath.
It's batshit and a little bloody at times. I can't say this is GREAT but I had quite a bit of fun. It's very interesting.
Since it follows multiple characters it's hard to follow and I recommend to leave this one for a moment where you can actually sit and pay attention. Definitely not a background movie.

herman yau returns to the troublesome night horror anthology series, here creating a kind of network narrative of overlapping sketches spiraling out of single incident (involving a car crash, but of course). moves from ghoulish black humor to maudlin sentiment, often within the same segments, as in the sequences with the young woman who starts a resort in honor of her dead husband only to find it attracts nothing but would be suicides; another sequence, involving a haunted cantopop record, seems to exist for no reason other than an extended lam suet guest appearance (not a complaint).
everything is held together by a kind of urban paranoia, grief, longing for departed loved ones, and many varieties of suicide and suicidal ideation, which helps to give the film an odd sort of staying power even as the horror imagery and scare gestures tend towards the familiar.

A mix of suicide drama, supernatural horror and psychological thriller. Herman Yau does TROUBLESOME NIGHT for the like 20th time, but with less comedy. Aside from the CGI, at least it looks good, especially the inner city scenes. The cast consists of familiar faces, but the difficult topic demands a little too much from them. The horror elements never really click and what might be moral undertones annoyed me. I still didn't hate it, because it felt a bit whacky from time to time and I swear there's some low-key humour hidden underneath the more serious storyline.

This is my 4th Herman Yau movie so far. I found this to be very unique and it kept my attention the whole way through. It's almost like a Final Destination style movie in a way. There's a lot more to it though. I feel like the ending could be a love it or hate it type of ending. I thoroughly enjoyed this and am going to keep looking for more movies by Herman Yau as I haven't felt let down once.

Herman Yau continues the Troublesome Night franchise under a different name. Not sure why they decided to switch up the branding, but you're getting three new short stories wrapped up in a slim and economic horror anthology. People familiar with the series will know what to expect, others get a nice entry point into one of Hong Kong longest standing horror franchises.
Three unrelated people get mixed up in a fatal traffic accident. A drunk taxi driver, a man on the brink of tying the knot and a depressed woman all end up dead. Their funerals reunite the surviving family members, but the ghosts of the deceased aren't quite ready to leave the mortal world behind. And so they return…
