The Movie Database-ondersteuning

This strange little Taiwanese comedy seems to attract strange and incorrect changes. But anyway, a user changed this film's title back to "Horror Inn": https://www.themoviedb.org/movie/395811

I explained in a thread some months back why this is wrong but I can't find it now. Basically, whatever this film's original title is, it's not known at the moment. The only version available on home video is a VCD where the distributor's deliberately obscured the original title. The poster image on the page currently is the cover of that VCD. The distributor of that VCD gave it the endlessly generic title "Ghost", but it's still a valid title. "Horror Inn" is a totally different film: http://hkmdb.com/db/movies/view.mhtml?id=9023&display_set=eng

Here is the entry for the film known as "Ghost": http://hkmdb.com/db/movies/view.mhtml?id=13735&display_set=eng

Here is the original poster for the movie I'm calling "Ghost". The picture is too small and too low quality to make out the English title below the Chinese title, but it's certainly not "Horror Inn", as it seems to have about four words. http://s6.sinaimg.cn/mw690/003DbPy0zy73p683lVHb5&690

I just find it strange this user uploaded an image where the title is clearly "GHOST", and then changed it to "Horror Inn". Anyway, I'm going to change the title back after I get somebody else's opinion on this, and then I'll post again to request a (temporary) lock on the title, if valid. "Ghost" isn't the original title, but it is the only one we have right now that isn't incorrect. I also wonder if it would be alright to upscale the image I posted above and upload it as the poster image instead. The VCD cover isn't a great choice as it uses a different Chinese title for the film (not the original one), and the image of the vampire is from a different film (I forget which one). I generally try to find a HQ poster image, but one really isn't available in this case.

Thanks! :)

Anybody? I've let this sit with the wrong title for far too long, so I've taken the liberty of changing it back. What about the image?

Done!

I also wonder if it would be alright to upscale the image I posted above and upload it as the poster image instead.

Alright, no, the quality of the picture is already crappy. But I understand why it would help to have the right poster. Maybe try it and see how it goes.

Alright, I'll refrain from uploading the image. Thanks for locking the title! It sucks that this film with its weird title issue is one of the few examples where I can't find a HQ poster image. :(
