Asian Horror: the Factors Driving Thai and Japanese Horror Film Industry: an Analysis Towards Ringu (1998) and Shutter (2004)
Conference Proceeding: 1st INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON CREATIVE MEDIA, DESIGN & TECHNOLOGY (REKA2014) ASIAN HORROR: THE FACTORS DRIVING THAI AND JAPANESE HORROR FILM INDUSTRY: AN ANALYSIS TOWARDS RINGU (1998) AND SHUTTER (2004) Wong Siew Peng, Penny & Azizul Rahman Mahfudz Kolej IACT, MALAYSIA [email protected] [email protected] ABSTRACT This paper discusses theoretically on the factors driving the Thai & Japanese horror film industry. The appeal of horror films from these countries is due to the uniqueness of their culture, religious beliefs, as well as socio-political circumstances that helped shaping the film industry. Horror films resonate with cinemagoers in the sense that they connect with an individual‟s subconscious yet fundamental need to deal with the things or issues that frighten him or her. Derry (2009) stated, in the way they work upon the audience, films act as dreams while horror films are the nightmares. Kellner (1995) also stated that horror films unearth the “hopes and fears that contest dominant hegemonic and hierarchical relations of power” through the portrayal of both significant dreams and nightmares of a culture and that the culture is attempting to channel them to sustain its current copulations of power and domination. However, Asian countries possess their own unique set of traditions and superstition, urban legends, as well as religious beliefs that are fundamental elements of their national identities such as Buddhism in Thailand & Shintoism in Japan. Teo (2013) credits the global interest in Thai films to the filmmakers‟ ability to present horror as a combination of natural and supernatural force. Besides that, the popularity of the genre in the country is also partly rooted in the Buddhist belief of reincarnation. -
Heroes and Representations of Masculinity in Thai Action Films
manusya 22 (2019) 34-53 brill.com/mnya Heroes and Representations of Masculinity in Thai Action Films Natawan Wongchalard (นตวัน วงศ์ฉลาด) Lecturer, English Department, Faculty of Humanities, Chiang Mai University, Chiang Mai, Thailand [email protected] Abstract This paper contextualises a cultural construction of hegemonic masculinity and dis- cusses ways in which Thai action film heroes in historical and Muay Thai films are rep- resented. Traditionally, the quality of nakleng is desirable for Thai action heroes along with having mastery in a particular skill. In the moral realm, the idea of gratitude or khwam-katanyu in Thai, is prioritised and highly regarded to be the inevitable requisite for good men, which includes action heroes. This sense of gratitude extends to one’s ideological obligations to one’s motherland or matuphum, which is often thematically portrayed in Muay Thai and historical films through the struggle of the hero. Based on a reading of the two exemplar films, Ong Bak (Muay Thai Warrior 2003, dir. Prachya Pinkaew) and The Legend of King Naresuan: The Elephant Duel (2014, dir. Chatri Chal- erm Yukol), the different social backgrounds of the two heroes, their hegemonic mas- culinity, autonomy and lack can be explained in relation to the discourse of Buddhist spirituality. In addition, the ways in which the two heroes are differently depicted is a cinematic device with the aid of which, in addition to the observance of filmic verisi- militude, the representations are designed to cater to segmented subject/citizen au- diences. In psychoanalytic terms, each hero from the two films is similarly made to acquire autonomy and experience ‘lack’ in different realms of the symbolic order. -
Queens of Langkasuka (2008) Azione, Fiaba E Pirati in Un Kolossal Thailandese
Queens of Langkasuka (2008) Azione, fiaba e pirati in un kolossal thailandese. Un film di Nonzee Nimibutr con Ananda Everingham, Jarunee Suksawat, Sorapong Chatree, Winai Kraibutr, Chartchai Ngamsan, Attaporn Teemakorn. Genere Epico durata 147 minuti. Produzione Tailandia 2008. Nel XVII secolo il regno della Regina Hijau viene preso in scacco da un principe ribelle che ha preso accordi con i malvagi pirati del capitano Corvo Nero. Giancarlo Zappoli - www.mymovies.it Il potente cannone di Langkasuka è oggetto delle mire di pirati e di principi di dinastie differenti. Ognuno di loro cerca di impossessarsene a prezzo anche di gravi perdite in battaglia. Non si esita anche a mettere in gioco la forza dell'antica formazione dei guerrieri "Doo Lam". La regina di Langkasuka è fatta oggetto di un attentato che fallisce ma che le offre la prova della necessità (per lei e le sue due sorelle principesse) di tentare il tutto per tutto per difendere il regno.Nonzee Nimibutr è un regista relativamente giovane (si è laureato in comunicazione nel 1987) ma già molto famoso nel suo Paese per l'impulso che ha dato all'affermazione del cinema tailandese. Questo film costituisce un esempio paradigmatico di una cinematografia assolutamente in grado di emulare i kolossal made in Usa con in sovrappiù la conservazione di un piacere intatto per la narrazione epica priva di sovrastrutture. Una facile operazione di lancio lo ha paragonato a 'Pirati dei Carabi' dal quale invece si distanzia profondamente per la assoluta noncuranza nei confronti di sovratesti depistanti o di ammicchi allo spettatore. La mescolanza di molteplici generi (dal ninja alla pirateria, dalla fiaba all'epico) non nuoce affatto alla complessità del film (di una lunghezza considerevole). -

Singapore 98 By Toh, Hai Leong Fall 1998 Issue of KINEMA th April-2nd May) started just before the closing of the more established 22nd Hong Kong International Film Festival on18th April. Big is the word for this year’s festival and the 300 films shown is nearly twice the size of Hong Kong’s output of 160 films. Of course, more does not necessarily mean better. However, the Singapore festival this year did have an overwhelming number of entertaining features, avant garde feminist video works (Women About Women), a flood of South East Asian shorts and experimental films, seminar workshops with the proponents ofthe emerging Asian-American cinema, led by Chris Chan Lee (Yellow), Renee Tajima-Pena (My America ... Or Honk If You Love Buddha), lara Lee (Modulations), Jon Moritsugu (Fame Whore). There was a tribute to Cannes’ 50th Anniversary with a slew of l 5 French Golden Palm winners and a Wim Wenders’ retrospective comprising l5 films. Homage was also paid to Thailand’s Cherd Songsri with special focus on his country’s cinema. This time the Festival Fringe held a screening of 33 shorts, mostly documentary. Not forgotten were the American independent films and Canadian films, one of which was Clement Vigo’s memorable The Planet of Junior Brown as well as the usual array of notable World and Asian films. While the prestigious Hong Kong festival seems to have waned somewhat in quantity and quality, its Sin- gapore counterpart has continued on an aggressively eclectic path which has been rewarded with good attendances for the major Asian and international films. -

The motE ional Lives of Buddhist Monks in Modern Thai Film Abstract As Phra Tham, a forest monk from Southern Thailand, traveled by train from his monastery to his home town for his younger sister’s cremation, he is tormented by visions of Muslim passengers wanting to kill him and the site of his sister being blown apart by a terrorist bomb. He is on the verge of tears the entire trip. This early scene in Nonzee Nimibutr’s film, OK Baytong, is one of many in recent Thai films which depict Southeast Asian Buddhist monks exhibiting extreme emotional joy, anger, or distress. Other films depict monks laughing hysterically, lashing out violently, sobbing uncontrollably, or fearfully trembling. These films, a small selection described below, offer a revealing lens into the myriad ways in which monks are displayed in Thailand. -

I owe an unpayable debt to my chair, Dr. Vernadette Vicuña Gonzalez, who helped deepen my project and its contributions to Thai American Studies. Throughout my tenure as a PhD student, Professor Gonzalez was tough mentor, pushing me to think about the importance of my project. “Bangkok is Burning” would not be possible without her guidance. In addition to her mentorship and help, she has been a friend, understanding that I, as a queer student of color and the child of immigrants, continually had pressing obligations outside of the academe. For her compassion, generosity, and much more, I am forever obliged. I am also indebted for the backing, intellectual growth, and friendship that my entire committee gave me throughout this process. In addition to Vernadette Gonzalez, my committee of Joyce Mariano, Elizabeth Colwill, Cristina Bacchilega, and Mariam Lam, helped cultivate my ideas, guiding me, in different ways, through the doctoral process. -

Jej życie prywatne także coraz bardziej przypomina filmową intrygę: kobieta tkwi w chłodnym małżeństwie z bogatym obcokrajowcem, niespełnionym rzeźbiarzem, coraz silniej angażującym się w religijny ruch pod przewodnictwem surowego guru. Bohaterka zmuszona będzie sięgnąć po drastyczne środki, by wydostać się z coraz bardziej opresyjnej sytuacji. Błyskotliwie poprowadzona, pełna napięcia narracja prowadzi widza w psychologiczny dramat z freudowskim zacięciem. Stylowe, chłodne zdjęcia kontrastują ze skrywanym głęboko kłębowiskiem emocji, które musi w końcu wybuchnąć.
