Vietnamese horror movie to premiere in 13 countries
VOV.VN - Vietnamese horror movie Kẻ ăn hồn (The Soul Reaper) is set to be screened in 13 countries and territories worldwide, including in the United States and Taiwan (China).
According to film director Tran Huu Tan, the movie earned a record revenue of VND55 billion, equal to over US$2.26 million, following nine days of nationwide screening to make it one of the top seven highest-grossing Vietnamese movies this year.
The film tells the story of a normal wedding of a young girl in Hell Village, an infamous village that no one comes in or out of, which was disturbed by a creepy-looking stranger. It soon turns to tragedy as she and all the villagers are gradually devastated by a series of brutal murders which are connected to an ancient black magic practice and the village’s dark past.
Earlier, Vietnam-based sales agent Skyline Media also unveiled that Kẻ ăn hồn was among five new Vietnamese titles for sale and distribution at the Asian Contents & Film Market (ACFN) market which accompanies the Busan International Film Festival.
