Queens of Langkasuka (2008) Thai Historical Fantasy Action

[xradman]

Thai Film Journal Review

This was way better than expected historical fantasy epic from Thailand. I would guess that this was probably the most expensive Thai film ever. The historic costumes are sumptuous and martial arts scenes and underwater effects were well choreographed and shot. The PQ is real high def and excellent unlike all the other cheap Taiwan Blu-rays from BitWel/ShengChi that I got along with this. The audio sounds somewhat muffled at times but surrounds are very active and match the visual panorama very well. Very highly recommended.

Video: 1080p24 AVC encoded 2.35:1 (excellent)
Audio: Thai in LPCM 5.1 or DD 5.1
Subtitles: Optional traditional and simplified Chinese or English
Extras: Trailer for The Restless

BTW, Magnolia is releasing this in the US in May 11, 2010.

If I remember correctly, there's a Region B French release for this one. I've been contemplating buying this one on DVD from eThaiCD, but seeing as Magnolia is releasing it, there will probably be a domestic release soon.

That's what I mean. Magnolia will be releasing this in Blu-ray on May 2010 according to Asian Blu-ray Guide

Seeing this makes me wonder when the full version of Legend of Suriyothai will come out on blu.
