The turn towards the horror genre with exploitation elements that Giddens Ko begun with “The Tenants Downstairs” proved a great choice, with “Mon Mon Mon Monsters” cementing his prowess in the genre, by highlighting his vivid imagination in script-writing and his directorial abilities in the best fashion.
Lin Shu-wei is the definition of the nerd. He is shy, weak, a permanent victim of the class’s bullies, has no friends, and always gets the best grades. The story begins with him being accused of stealing the class’s register money, and the leader of the bullies, Tuan Ren-hao, humiliating him even more, to the joy of the rest of his gang, Liao Kuo-feng, Yeh Wei-chu, and Wu Si-hua, Tuan’s girlfriend, who where the actual perpetrators.

"You want to be the good guy?" Rlje + Shudder have just debuted a new official Us trailer for a Taiwanese indie horror film titled Mon Mon Mon Monsters, which is the direct translation of the original title. This actually premiered back in 2017, and played at festivals throughout 2017 and 2018. It's only now getting an official Blu-ray release in the Us and of course there's a new trailer for it. Considering this got lost in the mix over the last few years, we thought it'd be fun to feature the latest trailer anyway – even if we're a year late. The film is about a group of teenagers that capture a man-eating monster. Starring Eugenie Liu, Pei-Hsin Lin, Carolyn Chen, Yu-Kai Deng, and Kent Tsai. This looks like it could be good, the monster FX look solid, and it seems to be a scary commentary on "monster" people in the real world. Check it out below.
