Synopsis:

This Shakespearean horror movie exists in two paralell worlds: on stage with Mekhdeth (“One Who would Grasp the Cloud”), the ambitious, bloodthirsty and superstitious warlord who becomes king by regicide, and in the ‘outside world’ beyond the theatre in the contemporary life of an ambitious, bloodthirsty and superstitious dictator of a country, known only as ‘Dear Leader’, and his scary wife. The two worlds mirror each other and soon shatteringly collide.
The Thai Hi So Lady witches, the vengeful ghost and other horrible pleasures are all here aplenty, but then there’s the real horror of watching a soul‘s tragic disintegration. Dubbed the Great-Grandpa of Horror for its potent, maximalist portrayal of a bad conscience—the evildoer’s ultimate nightmare, ‘Macbeth’ has inspired countless movies by filmmakers of many different cultures and generations.
