Hey what's up guys
Today I'll show you a horror-comedy film: "Visible Secret"
Spoiler ahead, watch out and take care
The movie begins 15 years ago in a busy street in Hong Kong
A man was clutching a small girl
He reassured her that she will be free, once her parents paid their debts to him
It's alluded to that the girl was given by her parents,
as collateral to the man in exchange for money
Another man impatiently walked through the throng of people, gathered near the intersection
He was pushed onto the road, and was promptly hit by an oncoming bus
The man stood up; and the people watching gasped,
because his head was no longer attached to his body
The crowd panicked; and in the chaos, the girl got separated from the man holding her
As the headless man walked around the alleys with his limbs twitching,
the girl knelt down and came face-to-face with the disembodied head
Years later, a hairdresser named Peter, meets a pretty girl named June, in the club
She gets accosted by her ex-boyfriend in the same club;
and she pretends that Peter is her boyfriend
The two strangers walk out of the club together
They hang out in a private karaoke room, where the bubbly June sings to her heart's content
While in the middle of their conversation, June suddenly shrieks,
and tells Peter that they have to go
When they leave the room, the lights start to flicker
Peter takes June to his cramped apartment
He asks her why she suddenly left; but she changes the subject
She bursts into tears, and tells him that her ex never believed her
Peter does not really know how to handle June's erratic moods;
and to his surprise, she tongue massages him
The two slept together that night
Peter wakes up the next morning, and discovers that June is gone
She had stolen 50 dollars, and painted the door of the bathroom with red paint
Peter and his roommate hear some strange growls coming from inside
When they fling open the curtain, they see Peter's father slumped on the bathroom floor
The father was diagnosed with Alzheimer, and was currently staying in a retirement home
He was the one who smeared the door with red paint
He tells Peter that he's possessed; but Peter does not believe his smelly bullshit
The father is taken to the hospital to recuperate
He wakes up and seems to be in a much better mood
He reminisces about how he first saw Peter's mother, when they became neighbors as children
Peter walks out of the hospital room,
and catches a glimpse of a nurse pushing an old woman in a wheelchair
He thinks it's June; and he follows her outside to the garden
But the nurse disappears; and Peter only manages to catch up to the wheelchair
He sees that the old woman is blind
Peter is distracted, when he starts his shift at the salon that day
The boy he's handling is fidgety; and he accidentally nicks his ear
Blood pours out of the wound; and the boy's mother throws a fit
Peter gets fired because of this
His roommate, who also works in the salon, tries to cheer him up by taking Peter out that night
He introduces Peter to a female friend; and that friend also brings June along
There are also two other men, and three other women who are tagging along with them
The group stays at a seaside resort for the night
The place is reportedly haunted; and the girls are giggling and trying to scare each other
They have dinner on the beach;
and Peter starts telling a story about a girl, who got into a fight with her boyfriend
She went to that resort and called her boyfriend, threatening that she would kill herself
Her boyfriend didn't believe her; and so she slit her wrists and died
After dinner, the rest of the group goes back to their bedrooms
June and Peter share a moment together;
and they're about to have a tongue massage,
when suddenly a strong gust of wind blows the windows open
A strange singing voice can be heard coming from the bathroom, where their friend Fatso stays
They open the door, and see her squatting in front of the toilet, repeatedly stabbing her thigh
There are now multiple bleeding holes on her thigh
Peter tries to help her; but June stops him and says that Fatso is possessed
Fatso stands up and goes out to the balcony
Peter follows her, and tries to make sure she's okay
She breaks out into a smile, and tells Peter that she's been waiting for him for so long;
and she wasn't sure if she believed him
It seems like Fatso is possessed by the ghost of the girl,
who committed suicide while waiting for her boyfriend
Peter pretends he is the boyfriend, and assures the ghost that he will never leave her,
and urges her to leave Fatso because she's too skinny to possess such a fat body
The ghost takes advantage of Fatso's body,
and gives him a greasy tongue massage before losing consciousness, finally ending the possession
On the ferry back to the city,
June shares with Peter that she has a third eye, that enables her to see spirits
Ever since she was young, she's been seeing ghosts all the time
Her supernatural abilities were so strong that she would be so disturbed by what she saw
A priest gave her an amulet to limit her powers;
so she can live a normal life; but the amulet's recently been weakening
She also wears shades that block out her other eye
Peter does not really believe in June's bullshit story
When they get back, Peter walks June to her apartment
He tells her he wants to see her again; and she answers vaguely while giving a coy smile
The two of them soon hang out in Peter's apartment together
Their relationship deepens; and they enjoy their days getting to know each other
One night, Peter wakes up alone in bed
He hears someone calling for him outside
Peter unlocks the door; and it's his roommate outside
June and Peter meet a young boy, while playing in a nearby playground
The other kids enjoy their company as well
Later that day, Peter notices that June is no longer wearing her ghost-blocking shades
Before she can explain, a large snake crosses their path
Peter deftly grabs the snake, and flings it away
Despite the happy relationship, Peter is struggling to find jobs in other salons in the city
He's running out of money, and tries to conceal his financial troubles from June
Peter gets the idea to work in their family's snake shop
But when he gets there,
he discovers that his hard-working brother had turned it into a snack bar instead
That night, Peter is playing with a coin
He flips it; and as it floats in the air, his father walks into his apartment
He looks lucid, and gives Peter some advice about admitting his mistakes
He also tells Peter that he will unconditionally support him
The father hands him a bar of chocolate, and then disappears
Peter realizes that tears are streaming down his face
The coin lands on the floor; and he realizes that he had fallen asleep
The phone rings;
and someone informs him that his father had hung himself with his hospital bed sheets
June attends Peter's father's funeral, but quickly runs out of the room
Peter chases her; but she has already disappeared
A relative informs Peter that June had visited his father in the hospital before his father died
A nurse there was staring at him creepily for five straight minutes
The relative had recognized June as the nurse
Peter meets with June in a restaurant
He asks her why she fled the funeral
but once again, she's tight-lipped
He then asks her why she was staring at his father in the hospital
Instead of answering, June abruptly stands up and walks away
Peter follows her to a secluded park
He sees her meet with the young boy they befriended before
The boy is crying; and he tells them that he's scared of his mother
They visit the mother at their house
Peter notices spirits fighting over the woman's soul
June confirms that she's possessed
The mother is displaying strange behavior, and talking to people they could not see
The spirit inside the mother confesses that when she got to Hong Kong,
she realized that the man she loved was married
Still, she stayed with him; and he died soon after that
The mother had spread lies about the spirit, who was her neighbor;
so when the neighbor died, she swore that she would take the mother with her
June argues with the spirit, telling her that the mother does not deserve to be possessed
This angers the spirit; and she locks them inside the apartment
She starts growling with an inhuman voice; then she attacks Peter
June unlocks the door; and she runs out of the apartment; but the spirit gets ahold of Peter
The spirit drags Peter to a hallway, but suddenly stops and starts slapping herself
June tells Peter that a male and female spirit are fighting over who gets to possess the body
While the spirits are distracted, June and Peter huddle in a corner
The spirits finally let go of the body; and the mother is cured
After their paranormal encounter, Peter gets frustrated with June
He's fed up with her secrets and her inability to open herself to him
June just cries and leaves
She gets home, and cries some more in her bedroom
Then the phone rings; and she urgently leaves her apartment with her eye patch in hand
She doesn't notice Peter stalking her from the shadows
He follows her to a wooded area, and watches as June meets with a priest wearing ritual robes
A parade of people holding up lanterns, crosses through the forest
A group of men come up behind Peter, and beat him
They warn him to stay away
Peter wakes up at an intersection
He sees a memory of the younger him and his father walking along a road
He had gotten bad grades; but his father comforted him with a bar of chocolate
The now-adult Peter silently cries, and apologizes to his father
He hugs him wholeheartedly
but when he pulls away, he realizes that his father's body is headless
Peter wakes up as dawn is breaking
He's still in the same intersection in his dream
He walks around the still-empty streets of the city, and approaches his brother
He asks him for a job there, and he agrees
Peter happily works in the shop; but he breaks a few bottles
His good-natured brother doesn't hold this against him
While on a break, Peter asks his brother when their father has become sick with Alzheimer
His brother answers that it was the same year that an accident happened on the street,
which caused the head of a man to be severed from his body
Peter decides to research the incident
He finds newspaper articles in the archives
One of the pictures includes a young girl, with a birthmark on her elbow
Peter realizes that June has the same birthmark,
and she might be connected to what happened to his father
Peter meets up with a female friend in his apartment
She is helping him get a job at another salon;
so she lets him cut her hair in preparation for his interview
However, June abruptly storms inside his apartment,
and tells Peter that the ghost from the boy's apartment is out to get him
But Peter no longer trusts her
He demands that she get out
June complies, but continues to watch him from afar
Later that night, Peter looks at pictures of him with his father before falling asleep
When he wakes up, June is on top of him, holding a paintbrush doused in red paint
He looks around, and sees that his body and nearby walls and floor are covered in red paint
Peter truly believes that June is unhinged; and he tells her that he never wants to see her again
But June just looks concerned for him
Peter now feels uncomfortable staying in his apartment alone; so he meets up with his roommate
The roommate suggests that they stay in his mother's house to be safe
Peter takes a bath; and when he steps out, the mirror in the closet shows that he's headless
This makes him do a double-take; but when he looks at the mirror again, his reflection is normal
In the middle of the night, Peter wakes up, completely covered in red paint again
When he stumbles out of the bedroom, he sees his roommate sprawled on the floor below
Peter hurriedly goes to his roommate, and asks him if he's okay
But the roommate is scared, and tells him that it was Peter who pushed him down the stairs
He had woken up in the middle of the night, and saw Peter painting the doors with red paint
When he had asked him what he's doing,
Peter appeared angry and spoke in an inhuman voice, before throwing the roommate down the stairs
This makes Peter realize that June isn't the one responsible for the things he's been experiencing,
and that he's being possessed by a malevolent spirit
He rushes out of the house, and goes to June's apartment
He sees her ex-boyfriend accosting her once again; so he rescues her by pretending to be possessed
Once the ex leaves, Peter apologizes for not believing her
In turn, June reveals that she didn't know his father at all;
but when she saw him in the hospital, his eyes looked familiar, which is why she was staring at him
Peter has an idea that the bizarre happenings can all be traced
back to the headless man incident 15 years ago
He asks her if she was there that time; but June has forgotten all her childhood memories
June tracks down the priest, who had created the amulet that limits her powers
Peter accompanies her, and enlists his services to get rid of the spirit possessing his body
The priest was the same man, who Peter had seen meet with June that night in the forest
It turns out, he was conducting a ritual that time
The priest reveals that he doesn't even believe in religion or ghosts;
but somehow, the amulet he gave to June had worked, and he became a professional priest ever since
June also shares that the priest had picked her up on the same street,
where the headless man incident happened 15 years ago
The priest shares that the man died, because someone had accidentally bumped into him,
causing him to get run over by the bus
This confirms that June was the girl shown in the beginning of the film
June suddenly freezes, and remarks that the headless man is right beside her
He possesses the priest's body; and he moans in an inhuman voice,
demanding that they give him back his head
Peter and June run their smelly ass out of the apartment,
with the headless man chasing them using the priest's body
The headless man then possesses Peter's body
He reveals that it was Peter's father, who pushed him that day onto the road
Ever since then, he had enacted his vendetta against the father,
by possessing him and causing the rest of the world to think he has Alzheimer's
When the father died, he exacted his revenge on Peter, because he is the son
June suddenly regains her memory of the incident,
and tells the headless man that he wasn't pushed by Peter's father intentionally
He had actually been shoved by a lady, holding a basket in the crowd,
causing the father to bump into the headless man accidentally
This convinces the headless man to leave Peter alone
Later on, Peter and June visit his father's grave
While walking in the cemetery, Peter notices that June's memory is fading;
and she can no longer remember the time they spent together
They encounter the boy's mother from earlier
She's sitting by a gravestone, with June's name and picture on it
She explains that her daughter had killed herself in a seaside resort,
because her heart was broken by her boyfriend
This was the same urban legend Peter had heard before
The mother adds that every time she visits her daughter's grave, she plays her favorite song
It was the same song that June heard in the resort
It turns out, June has been dead for a long time, and she is a spirit wandering the city
The movie ends with June melancholically singing her favorite song to Peter
