GOD SKIN: Get Some Skin In The Fight In The First Teaser For The New Thai Fantasy Martial Arts Flick
The first official teaser for fantasy martial arts tournament header, God Skin, from Ghost Lab director Paween Purijitpanya is now online. new martial arts fantasy, God Skin, is getting a welcome ceremony this summer with a World Premiere at the thirtieth edition of Fantasia International Film Festival. For this, we now have new poster art signaling its release following its announcement in the second wave on Thursday.
Desperate for money, Bangkok delivery boy Marwin discovers a clandestine arena where the wealthy wager on martial-arts matches with a high-tech twist, in the spectacular Thai action-fantasy GOD SKIN. Panna Stunt Team (veterans of the ONG-BAK films) handle the combat choreography, so top-notch action is assured as Marwin faces off against a succession of outrageous rivals. Leading man Sutthirak Subvijitra, of the MY BOO and 4 KINGS series, proves equally deft at drama, comedy, romance, and high-flying, hard-hitting stunts, but director Paween Purijitpanya (GHOST LAB, 4BIA) takes things further, as this live-action arcade game loaded with rapid-fire laughs and eye-popping visual effects takes a sharp turn into dark, dystopian techno-thriller territory. This is potent proof that Thailand’s action cinema remains among the world’s best, offering ferocious fights and fresh new ideas.
Those are the programming notes out of Fantasia where God Skin is expected to have its World Premiere this month. The film is slated for a theatrical release on August 27.
