Nang Nak

Bangkok’s Lido Connect cinema will celebrate Halloween with a revival of Nonzee Nimibutr’s classic horror film Nang Nak (นางนาก), showing on 29th-31st October; 2nd, 3rd, 5th, 9th, 11th, 12th, 15th, 18th, 19th, 23rd, 25th, 27th November; and 2nd December. The 31st October screening will be followed by ปลุกตำนานกว่าจะเป็นนางนาก (‘awakening the legend of Nang Nak’), a discussion with the director. Both a critical and commercial success, the film is one of the most famous adaptations of the Mae Nak ghost story, and one of the milestones of the Thai New Wave.
