Yuthlert Sippapak’s Friday Killer to premiere at Phuket film fest
27 April 2010
Bangkok - The Phuket Film Festival will screen acclaimed Thai director Yuthlert Sippapak’s Friday Killer as its closing film on Sunday, June 13. This will be a World Premier for director Sippapak’s first movie in The Killers Trilogy.
Director, writer, and producer Yuthlert Sippapak has received international recognition for his daring visual style and unconventional screenwriting. His film credits include Killer Tattoo (2001), February (2003), and Buppah Rahtree (2003) which is one of Thailand’s highest grossing films, popular for its eccentric storyline and blend of horror with comedy.
Friday Killer is the story of “Pae Uzi” (comedian Suthep Pho-ngam) aka “The Eagle of Chantaburi”, a professional hit-man who was just set free from prison. After his release, he learns for the first time he has a daughter “Dao” (Ploy Jindachote - actress played lead role with William Hurt and Cary Elwes in the supernatural thriller ’Shadows’). The tables are turned on Pae when his daughter tries to kill him because she thinks that he killed the only father that she knew.
Cast and crew are expected to attend the closing movie and reception that will follow.
The Killers Trilogy is produced by Sippapak’s Mahagan Pictures with financing from Phranakorn Film who is also handling international sales and domestic distribution.
