Ready for Kom Faek 2: Checkmate?

A few more days, boys and girls, are you ready for “Kom Faek 2: Checkmate”? As for myself, I guess so. Barely watched the first one, only fast-forwarded to the cute scenes between Cheer and Cee Siwat, I never got the story, a bunch of people running around trying to impetrate Kelly Thanapat’s gang. And a whole lot of ‘kom-faek (stick)’ fighting. Por Natthawut carried that stick around everywhere, it was truly his weapon of choice.

It was a hit, so they are doing a second one. It’s a film as you lakorn with better production than the last. In terms of TV ratings, I’m sure it will do just fine.

July 20th is the premier date.

2nd Teaser.

They kept repeating “Checkmate, Checkmate”. WTH, is that all about? I felt like I was watching a commercial for the game ‘Street Fighter’ or ‘Mortal Kombat’. You know when they do their punches and kicks, they repeat a phrase.

Near the end, Por says, “In this game, I will end it myself.” Okay buddy, you do that.

Cee Siwat with a gun, Cheer and Oh praying, Por holding his ‘kom faek’ stick, and Kelly being interviewed.

Everyone praying to the lakorn gods for high TV ratings.

One of our heroes, Cee Siwat posing with a gun. In the first installment, he was an undercover cop. This time around, probably the same.
