Korean sales outfit Barunson E&A, the production company behind Bong Joon Ho’s Oscar-winning Parasite , has boarded international sales on the project。
Banjong has long been regarded as one of Southeast Asia ‘s premier genre directors。
His 2004 debut Shutter became a defining title in the Thai horror wave of the 2000s, while the comedy-horror Pee Mak (2013) became Thailand’s highest-grossing film of all time and the first Thai title to surpass ten million domestic admissions。
His most recent release The Medium (2021), a found-footage supernatural thriller co-produced with Korea’s Showbox, was well received by critics, but saw its theatrical release hampered by the pandemic。
The film centers on a wealthy family whose polished exterior begins to crack when an ancient centipede spirit infiltrates their bloodline。
