Dial D for Demons (simplified Chinese: 炭烧凶咒; traditional Chinese: 炭燒兇咒; pinyin: Tàn Shāo Xiōng Zhòu; literally: The Murderous Curse of the Charcoal), also known as Taan Shiu Hung Chow, is a 2000 Hong Kong horror film directed by Billy Tang Hin-Shing, starring Jordan Chan, Joey Meng, Lee Ann, Terence Yin, Alice Chan and Winnie Leung.
A group of six youngsters travel to Lantau Island for a holiday in a vacation villa. The place turns out to be very up-to-expectations, but strange things start happening once they step into the house. One of them, Big Bully, has the ability to see spirits, and he senses imminent danger. Before he can warn his friends, he is found dead inside his room. The others are shocked and attempt to leave the place but the roads keep directing them back and the neighbouring houses have disappeared mysteriously too. They have no choice but to spend the night in that ghostly villa. Shortly later, their pagers start beeping and they receive strange messages that they are going to die at different times. The house seems to have a life of its own and eventually the five of them are separated from each other, with four of them meeting their deaths at the hands of a charcoal demon. The last one, Gabriel, encounters the spirit of Big Bully (her boyfriend), and they try to unravel the mystery together. Gabriel manages to survive the night until dawn and she is apparently the sole survivor of the entire incident.
