Complete SNAFU - nice goin' Mill Creek!

"All three films in this collection are defective. The first SPIRITED KILLER is presented with a choice of English dubbing or the original Thai language audio - but there are no English subtitles, and the English dubbing is unusually bad.
SPIRITED KILLER 2 and 3 are screwed up differently. They are presented only in Thai and do have perfectly adequate English subtitles - but they forgot to letterbox the "scope" ratio films. The end result is that both films are stretched out to 16x9, making everything appear unnaturally tall and skinny. SPIRITED KILLER 1, it should be noted, is properly letterboxed in the 16x9 frame.
Bonus points are awarded for referring to the Thai language as "Taiwanese" not once, not twice, but THREE times on the DVD cover. It shows how much work went into this release that not only are ALL the films on the DVD screwed up, but Mill Creek can't even correctly identify the language spoken in the films' country of origin. Don't buy this release... unless you plan on downloading subs for the first film, then re-encoding and re-authoring the whole package yourself."
Three Movies Renowned For Their Terribleness

"I just watched these three, or I should say parts of them. I was hoping to see some interesting Thai culture in the background even if the movie was no good but no. There is some bizarre made-up pretend voodoo rituals and even wierder zombification rituals, but they aren't interesting, they seem to have been concocted by fifth graders. Then there are lots of Thai folks running around in open woods and fields chasing each other and being chased by zombies. The scenes could just as well have been in Alabama for all the Thai culture there is. There is essentially no plot or character in any of these, they aren't so bad that they're good, and I really wonder if they weren't all arranged and directed, written and edited by some rich fifth grader for a grade school project."
This is by far the worst ever!
