The official website for Yuthlert Sippapak’s Ghost of Valentine (Krasue Valentine) now is partly functional. As was previously reported here on Twitch, the movie stars ‘Ploy’ Jindachoti and Pitisak Yaowananon. Sahamongkol Film International Co. Ltd. is scheduled to release it theatrically in Thailand on Valentine’s Day (Tuesday February 14th; movies normally are released theatrically in Thailand on Thursdays).

According to View from the Brooklyn Bridge, “the Phii Krasue is a very scary ghost in Thai mythology. It consists of a flying head with entrails hanging from it and a voracious hunger for blood and intestines. It uses its long flicking tongue to lick the dead carcass and sharp teeth to chew on it. It has a similarity with a ghost type from Malaysia called the penanggalan (’head with dancing intestines’). This type of ghost has been depicted at least a couple of times previously in Asian films with Hong Kong’s ‘Witch with the Flying Head’ (1977) and Indonesia’s ‘Mystics In Bali’ (1981).”

Sippapak’s previous directing credits include Buppah Rahtree and Buppah Rahtree Phase 2: Rahtree Returns.

Website appears to be fully live now, though it’s loading very slow ... gave up on it before finding the trailer ...
