If you're going to make a martial arts film and you don't have the budget of a grandiose Chinese epic like Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon or Hero to take advantage of, there's a way to make up for it: get silly. It worked for Jackie Chan more than a few times, and it looks like it's going to work for Muay Thai Giant as well. The story of a seven foot man who goes into a Hulk-like martial arts rage when he eats the spicy Thai food "somtum", Muay Thai Fighter is too ridiculous not to enjoy. With that said, you're in luck, because we're giving away a copy to one lucky reader. Hit the jump to find out how you can win.
Here's the official synopsis:
While on holiday in Pattaya seven foot gentle giant Barney Emerald is drugged and robbed of all his personal possessions including his passport. Two Thai sisters find and befriend him by giving him a place to stay while he recovers and tries to figure out how to get his passport back. After eating some spicy “somtum” at their mother’s restaurant, Barney accidently flies into a fit of rage and demolishes the place. The sisters soon discover that when he eats the spicy “somtum,” it causes a physical reaction sending him into a violent martial arts frenzy. The girls decide to help him by using the “somtum” to control Barney’s powerful reactions to help earn his money back and take down the local crime lords.
Muay Thai Giant stars seven foot tall former WWE Wrestler, Nathan Jones (Troy, Jet Li’s Fearless, The Protector) and well-known marital arts sensation Dan Chupong (Ong Bak Series, Born to Fight, Legend of The Tsunami Warrior).
