Terror Taxi

Filmmakers too often throw a lot of scenes together without regard to how they interact logically. One scene will follow another without a sense of consistent action. The filmmaker knows what he wants to say to the audience but he gets caught up in each individual scene and will not have a feel for the overall production. This problem is not uncommon, but it is rectified by the hands of a skillful editor. Unfortunately, skillful editors can sometimes be difficult to come by. "Ghost Taxi", as it is known in the USA, is a prime example of this. There are a number of clever scenes but overall, the film does not make much sense. The hero dies in a crash. His girlfriend is threatened by the evil spirit that caused his own death. He fights to save her and dispose of the evil spirit. This would probably make a decent comedy, spooky movie if it were made by Will Ferrell.
