Monthon Arayangkoon's horror flick The House creeps onto DVD this June
MVM have announced the release of Thai horror movie The House, out on 4th June retailing for £15.99. Directed by Monthon Arayangkoon of The Victim fame, it stars pop superstar Inthira Chaloenpura, who you may recognise from Brokedown Palace.
With no break in current tradition, extras seem thin on the ground for this title, so those wanting more than the movie will have to make do with that thing we calls the internets.
Synopsis follows......
