Neuer Thai-Horror: Ghost Mother, The Haunted Drum ...

Siam Cineplexx
2007 das Jahr für thailändische Horrorfilme ! Ein Segen für uns, hoffe ich mal ! Confused Das Jahr begannen vermutlich die Macher von ' Shutter ' mit ihrem Überraschungs-Hit ' Alone - Faed ' und nun kommt eine Flut von Horror/Thriller Filmen auf uns zu, die uns das Fürchten lehren soll ! Die Mädchen mit den langen schwarzen Haaren gibt es zwar immer noch aber seit einiger Zeit rückt mehr der Gore/ Splatter in den Vordergrund. Wie bei zB.: Art of the Devil 1-2, Scared oder auch Hell ! Genug geredet, kommen wir zum Eigentlichen. Hier nun ein paar Film Vorstellungen, weiss nicht ob es die schon in einem anderen Thread gibt, wenn ja dann nehms mir nicht übel ! Augen rollen so Let's Go :

So, dass müsste erstmal reichen ! Sehn ja alle schon mal nett aus. Für ein paar Filme hab ich leider keine Trailer und pics, also sorry for that ! Aber ich hoffe ich habe euer Interesse geweckt !

Ich muss sagen, bisher hat mich kein Thai-Horrorstreifen packen können. Einzig Shutter sticht meiner Meinung nach wirklich heraus. Ansonsten produzieren die Thais in Sachen Horror größtenteils nur Mist. Allerdings interessiert mich brennend Alone und The Unsseable von dem großartigen Wisit Sasanatieng! Der Mann ist einfach eine Bereicherung für das Thai-Kino. Gute Arbeit
Morty
Herzlich willkommen im Forum und vielen Dank für deine interessanten Beiträge. Über thailändisches Kino gibt es in unserem Asia-Bereich erschreckend wenig, und so ist es doch sehr schön, dass jemand darüber berichtet. Bist du in Thailand geboren, oder lebst du dort manchmal?

Meiner Meinung nach ist "Shutter" der beste Horrorfilm Thailands und gleichzeitig einer der besten modernen asiatischen Horrorfilme überhaupt! "Alone" habe ich mir bereits als Korea-DVD mit englischen Untertiteln bestellt und habe große Hoffnungen. Die Poster der kommenden Filme sehen auch sehr interessant aus. Hoffen wir mal, dass etwas draus wird. fröhlich

Auf jeden Fall danke für deine Mühe - wir möchten mehr davon sehen! Hammer

PS: Ich habe mir mal erlaubt, den Thread etwas übersichtlicher zu gestalten. Beim nächsten Mal vielleicht etwas darauf achten - @Siam Cineplexx.

Interessierst du dich allgemein für thailändische Filme, oder eher nur für Horrorfilme?
Siam Cineplexx
Also ich mag Thai Filme so allgemein . Ich kann alles gucken aber hab schon so einen Hang zum Horror ! Aber die müssen ja nicht ultrabrutal sein. Aber auch Action and Comedy guck ich mir gerne an !^^
Soljah
Hast du evtl einen Tipp? Ich steh total auf Filme wie Citzen Dog, Tears of the black tiger oder Jan Dara. Leider bekommt man so wenig Infos über aktuelle thailändische Filme.
Siam Cineplexx
Also wenn ich nach DVDs ausschau halten will dann geh ich auf : http://www.ethaicd.com/

Aber so Kino-Informationen bekommen ich dann von meinem Freunden aus Thailand ! Grins
