MOTEL MIST Thailand 2016 117 min original version with English subtitles Script: Prabda Yoon, DoP: Chananun Chotrungroj, Editor: Lee Chatametikool, Music: Jitivi Banthaisong, Siwanut Boonsripornchai, Production: 185 Films, Producer: Soros Sukhum, Cattleeya Paosrijareon, Cast: Prapamonton Eiamchan, Surapol Poonpiriya, Vasuphol Kriengprapakit, Katareeya Theapchatri, Wissanu Likitsathaporn Just a few hours at the unusual love motel on the outskirts of Bangkok, where a typical Thai father brings his new young prey to his personal erotic chamber, will change the lives of the present guests in an unexpected way. Staffer Tot, the teenage girls Laila and Vicky, Sopol, their violent dominator, get torn into a mysterious power when Tun arrives, a former child actor who is forced by aliens. "With such a deranged group enclosed in one space, Yoon twists the plot so much that at a certain point there is no doubt: only aliens can save this world from madness. Hotel Mist, as undoubtedly the most outré film in the competition, was really an outlier of bizarreness and was separated by a considerable gulf to the rest of the selections in this strand."
