About:
This original Filipino movie is later remade with the same name The Echo in 2008 by the same director.

Synopsis:
Marvin savors his independence in a newly acquired unit of an old apartment building. He is frequently visited by his girlfriend Pinky (Google Angel Locsin). Except for the occasional noise from an apartment unit down the hallway, the place is almost perfect for Marvin. At the end of the hallway is where Anna lives with her young daughter Lara, and Bert, her jealous husband. Bert is a cop, and he has always suspected Anna of cheating on him. His frequent jealous outbursts would always lead to beatings that could be heard throughout the whole floor. Marvin complains to the building caretaker, a drunk, who would tells him to ignore the disturbance from the apartment down the hall. Anna and her daughter would usually ask for help from Jude, who lives in an apartment unit in the middle of the hallway. Jude's apartment becomes a temporary refuge for the little girl Lara. The beatings down the hall intensify as Marvin finally decides to confront the problem. The discovery sets into motion a series of hauntings that follow him and Pinky wherever they go. Marvin decides to face the evil. What happens next shakes the very core of his beliefs about life, love and the spirit world.
