A film we’ve ben covering pretty heavy since June is the Thai horror pic THE COFFIN, which we first told you about here. Today we learned that Thai helmer Ekachai Uekrongtham’s film nailed the top spot at Thailand’s box office last weekend – outpacing Jason Statham’s DEATH RACE, which opened across the country on the same day. Check out some new stills inside and an updated trailer inside.
Inspired by a true Thai ritual of lying in coffins to cheat death and get rid of bad luck, The Coffin is a spine-chilling supernatural thriller about a man and a woman who are confronted by a series of paranormal and terrifying incidents after going through the bizarre ritual. Thrilling, mysterious and ultimately moving, this new film from the award-winning director of Beautiful Boxer is also about the beauty of life and death, living and dying.
