Concept Art For Nonzee Nimibutr's Queen of Lung-Gasuka

by Todd Brown, April 16, 2006 6:14 AM


Spurred on by some strange impulse to find out what was happening with Nonzee Nimibutr's latest I just took a swing by his Cinemasia website and found concept art and production sketches for his upcoming film The Queen of Lung-Gasuka. The days of Nimibutr producing intimate little films like Mae Nak and Jan Dara? Yeah, those are gone. Can you say epic? It's got a WHALE crushing burning WAR SHIPS! And while there is no cast list to be found on the website the rumblings are that Born To Fight's Dan Chupong will star in a major role and will be using the double sword dab thai fighting style.

You can find all the artwork here.

Upon looking at the rest of the artwork all I can say is HOLY CRAP! Not only does it have a huge pissed off whale, it also has demonic bats, a fleet of apparently friendly hammerhead sharks, some sword-swinging dude WITH WINGS and, most importantly because I got a creepy fetish for these things, a character standing amindst the bones of some other huge creature. Based solely upon the imagery, this flick has tons of potential that the Thai film industry can now squander with crappy CGI and general lack of having any idea of how to make a watchable movie. Sorry if I sound negative. Maybe I should watch more Thai movies that do not involve snakes and insects animated on an Atari, giant birds yelling at people or ridiculously overhyped martial arts slapfests.

Caterpillar: it's a Nonzee film which means it'll look mighty good. He's got a really good eye. And I'm really hoping the winged guy ends up being Chupong ...
