Phairii phinaat paa mawrana (2006)

Vengeance sees a violent and stubborn cop chase a gang of escaped convicts into a cursed jungle. Lots of monsters, magic and mysticism abound. It's interesting for awhile, with some shootouts and exposition setting the scene. There's a creepy but awesome Tiger Wasp attack, that has a man ripped apart in gorerious old school fashion. However, as the monsters get bigger the effects become worse. A group of baby alligator/tree lizard things are neither convincing as animatronics or CGI. Both are rather jolty but are luckily still fun to watch. A giant CGI snake/demon is next up, which is confusingly bad, as it is so hard to get any perspective on the creature, I was surprised every time the snake grabbed someone as it never looked close enough. By the time people start turning into tree demons it's all a bit chaotic. The designs of these human/tree hybrids are wonderful, with leaf like wings and bark like skin. Again the mixture of CGI and make-up is jarring. Overall this is a fun monster movie, but has too many flaws within it's overlong running time.
