very interesting concept: BUT: absolutely incomprehensible script, editing and direction and way way way over the top pointless violence..[part of the point I know--still; doesn't work for me]
…however: gorgeous cinematography, stunts, soundtrack and performances! some interesting limited FX…
worth watching if you have nothing better to do…
If they make a follow up I’m sure it’ll get better….very cool seeing other cultures tie in their mythology into contemporary “sci-fi/action” flicks….[this one plays with karma as it's theme]
thanx as always for the torrent/encode!
Having lived in Thailand before, I can offer this: The movie has nothing to do with Thai mythology. Thai film makers concentrate on two areas: Horror and Action. Here they just seem to be trying to meld the two (although heavier on the action). And the cast is action heavy for a Thai cast, including the kid who side-kicked Nicholas Cage in Bangkok Dangerous and a regular rough-neck in the Thai, Mob-Bar scene.
As always, the subtitles leave a lot to be desired. Thais have just as complex a sense of humor as English speakers, and getting that to come through in subtitles is impossible.
Pretty good flick considering they spent less than $3 million on production.
