A serious craftsman of the popular Thai cinema of the last fifteen years, in which he has never ceased to participate, Ping Lumpraploeng plunges with delight into genre film.

With the necessary inventiveness in the torture of his two main characters, the film continues to reinvent itself for our greatest pleasure. The last Fantastic Fest of Austin has already made its choice, and gave this movie the prize for "the most fun to see in public".
