Original subtitles

All of us are by nature wild beasts.

Our duty as human beings

is to become like trainers

who keep their animals in check,

and even teach them to perform tasks

alien to their bestiality.

Ton Nakajima

Take some pictures for our report.

HQ, do you copy? Over.

This is Unit 2. Do you copy? Over.

Get closer. Group photo.

Take a picture.

It's for my girl. Make me look handsome.

Closer. Kneel down.

He's not moving.

Help me move him.

We've found a dead male. Over.

Pass me the rope.

We're at M.O. 4 by the edge of the forest.

Forest fire on M.O. 12. Copy, over.

Is Ой there? Over.

Ой is on lunch break. This is PaПатчари

Pretty Patcharee all alone. Do you need a friend?

I have lots of friends. But my heart is still free.

Then I'll stop by. Don't be a stranger.

Is that Sawang?

I've only heard your voice. I've never met you in person.

I'm at M.O. 4. I hope my voice can soothe your heart.

Can you sing us a song?

What? There's too much static. I can't hear you very well.

That's static from my heart. It's calling out to you.

Can I request a song?

Your battery might run out.

I'll request a song from the radio. Is there a signal out there?

This is for you lonely guys.

You're hot and wild like a forest fire.

It's a sad story!

Here are the vegetables.

Where did you find them?

I stole them.

Let's get them washed.

Put them in this bowl and wash them.

Then put them on the plate.

I'll cook you a great meal.

Do you know him?

No, he doesn't.

More?

Tonight, the body will bloat and change position.

And its spirit will...

Are you talking about ghosts?

When are the police coming?

You don't have to chase us away.

I may be a sweet talker but my heart is sincere.

Hello?

What's up?

Hello.

No need to bow. Are you heading home?

No, I'm picking up my nephew from school.

- Where are you going next? - Aren't you in the jungle?

I may be transferred to Chiang Rai.

Permanently?

The wood mafia is angry with me.

Sounds like a movie!

He's after a girl up there.

Being honest gets you shot.

The weather there is good.

Do you want to come?

Sure. But I've forgotten your name.

What? I don't want to speak to you now.

I remember your face but...

There goes the engine.

- Tong, stay calm. - I am calm. But it's hard.

- Release the clutch slowly. - I can't drive this thing.

Anyone with two feet can learn to drive.

- Let's try again. - Maybe later.

Today. I'll help you start it.

My boss said I can deliver ice if I learn to drive.

- Sit down. - It's pouring.

- I'm soaked. - Are you cold?

If you're cold, try this.

- How did you know I like Clash? - I've done my research.

Can you get me a poster of the singer for my room?

Only if you come to the market with me. And my camp, too.

Your camp is too far away.

It's not that far.

Keng, can you do this?

Stop showing off.

- So, are you coming? - I can't.

I'm worried I'll look foolish in town.

You won't, you listen to cool music.

Here's me as a soldier, with a crew cut.

It was taken at Kanchanaburi.

Ah, a soldier has a lonely heart.

You never die a natural death.

I'd hate to die without having loved.

You're so sappy!

Who's the other guy?

I'll come another day when I'm free.

A kid!

It's my dog.

Is it dead?

What style are you looking for?

I'm just looking.

This style suits you. Perfect for impressing girls.

They cost too much.

Not for real Italian leather.

Too much. I'm broke.

What unit are you from?

I'm not a soldier. I'm unemployed.

I hope the uniform will get me work.

Where have you applied?

This is the first place.

Do you know much about shoes?

Shoes? What's there to know?

I'm kidding.

Thank you for the pork. I'll make you pork salad tomorrow.

You're welcome. Let me know if you like it. That shop is quite famous.

You always bring us food. You really shouldn't.

Why don't you move in and help us on the farm?

Her stomach is full of fluid.

We can see lots of fluid in the pancreas.

We know she has cancer here.

But in this other x-ray

it looks like another tumor may have spread from there.

Surgery is the only way to know for certain.

But it's up to the owner because the dog is quite old.

If we put her to sleep she might not wake up.

The other option is chemotherapy.

It depends how soon the owner wants to see results.

Can you please fill in the form?

What's your name?

I feel sorry for her. You should let us operate.

Maybe you should try vegetables.

Keng...

...what does this say?

You can't write your name in the address box.

Can you do it for me?

I'm out of bullets.

Don't come out yet. Stock up on ammo first.

Super immaculate man!

Without you I go crazy...

Without gel I would die.

Don't you mean you'd die without Es?

Thank you.

Even though I may be old,

please think of me as a younger sister.

I dedicate this next song to that handsome man over there,

Keng of the Forest Patrol M.O. 21.

The gentleman seems happy today.

As usual, man. It's payday.

His majesty has changed.

- You're handsome today. - I can't help it.

- I haven't seen you lately. - You alone today?

I'm in town to use the Internet.

Keng, don't forget the Colonel is due tomorrow.

Yes. Wait, won't you stay for the rest of the movie?

"I like you very much" - Keng

I found this note in your trousers.

- What is it? - See for yourself.

The dog is cold.

The note is for you.

For me? Should I leave your dad?

Come here, Suea.

Is this correct?

- Stop joking. - Sign here.

Remember my uncle who could recall his past lives?

You believe him?

Sure. It's a true story.

He was 90 years old when he came to our house.

He could recall 200 years.

I don't want to remember that long.

Because you don't have good memories.

From now on I will.

Oh, come on...

I have good memories.

Such as?

In my past life, I may have had ten wives.

Trying to make me jealous?

Well, are you?

Stay that way.

If our lines form a royal barge, we're meant for each other.

That's not a royal barge. That's a rowing boat.

Go and row it.

What are these cuts?

Can I lie on your lap?

No.

I was going to say, no... no problem.

Don't keep it to yourself. Sing for me.

I was about to. You ruined the mood.

Don't play tricks.

- Am I heavy? - No.

I wish I had a guitar.

Why?

So I can play for you like in the movies.

- You can play? - You should see me.

Look at this.

I'm not a dog.

Stay away.

When I gave you the Clash tape,

I forgot to give you my heart.

You can have it today.

Here it is.

- Are you getting it? - It's coming. I can feel it.

Can I join you?

Do you want flowers?

- I sell them at the temple. - Only if they're free.

If you want good karma, you have to invest.

The same goes for love.

Such wisdom!

I moved here with my husband 30 years ago.

Back then there was only forest.

Sounds like a jungle romance.

Yeah right, romance full of malaria.

Let me tell you a story.

Two poor farmers once met a little monk.

The monk asked them,

"Do you want to be rich?"

The two farmers said, "Yes."

He told them to go to the pond - this one right here -

and collect rocks from the water.

Then he disappeared.

The two farmers did as he said.

They filled their bags with rocks.

One man's rocks turned to gold, while the other's turned to silver.

They both wanted more so they went back to the pond.

But this time they only found rocks.

The gold and silver turned into toads that jumped away.

Greed is our downfall.

I was watching "Who Wants to Be a Millionaire".

One woman was winning a lot of money but she wouldn't stop playing.

She lost and only got 30,000 Baht.

I don't even earn 10,000 Baht.

I want to meet that little monk.

He must be dead by now.

Come along.

Let your elders lead the way.

This cave is very big.

The area below is equal to that above.

Above here is the pavilion. And up there is the temple.

Come on. Hurry up.

It stinks of bat shit.

- They'll shit on you. - Speak for yourself!

Through this hole is a small tunnel.

It comes out into the lake outside.

It's quite amazing.

Only the blessed can pass through.

After two metres, your candle goes out.

- That means there's no air. - No.

Even flashlights go out.

What's that sound?

Once, someone went in without any light.

Half way, there was poison gas. He almost died.

- Do you want to try? - Yes.

Are you crazy? It's dangerous.

Quickly. Then we can leave.

No way. You heard what she said.

Let's go. It's okay.

Stop it.

What's wrong?

Take it out.

She's watching us.

Noi, come over here.

I found these two at the temple.

You are soldiers, right?

My sister likes soldiers.

If she meets one, she always brings him home.

I'm just a soldier's friend.

Soldiers are cute.

Some soldiers helped me harvest my corn.

They wouldn't take any money so I made them dinner.

They were really cute.

You two don't look alike.

Come on, let's have some soda.

But it's comfortable here.

Let's go get some soda.

Have some soda.

How much is it?

It's our treat. My sister is rich.

This small shop pays for her son to study abroad.

Have some pomelo.

Do you want to smoke some pot?

No, thank you.

It's fresh bud I grew myself. I guarantee you'll like it.

You shouldn't advertise too much. His duty is to defend the nation.

With all these cornfields, you must need a driver.

My son-in-law drives for me. He used to drive for TV crews.

He got fired so I let him be my driver.

Last month, I went to Goo Temple and brought back a wooden phallus.

You point the head out for good luck.

I've had so many customers since. I'll show it to you.

It's been blessed by holy water at the temple.

Here, ever seen one?

Business has been booming since I got it.

Do you want to go to the mall?

Come with us.

Tik, tell Jamm I'm going into town.

Jamm's wife sells plants there.

Keng, about tomorrow...

What?

I haven't washed my hands.

I found a paw print this morning and a cow has vanished.

That's mine.

This is the third night in a row.

All the villagers are scared shitless.

A monster.

Yes, a big one.

A SPIRIT'S PATH

Inspired by the stories of Noi Inthanon

Featuring Banlop Lomnoi and Sakda Kaewbuadee

Once upon a time, there was a powerful Khmer shaman

who could turn into various creatures.

He roamed the jungle and played tricks on villagers.

Excuse me, is anyone up there?

Who's there?

What are you doing here?

I came to fetch you. My mother has a high fever.

Don't come in the forest alone. It's dangerous.

Show me the way.

The hunter shot the tiger

and trapped the shaman in the tiger spirit.

The tiger corpse is on display at Kanchanaburi Museum.

Now every night,

the shaman's spirit turns into a tiger to haunt travellers.

The villagers and their livestock have started to disappear.

HQ, do you copy?

HQ, do you copy?

As the tiger ghost tries to enter his dream,

the soldier thinks about the missing villager.

The ghost is fascinated

by the soldier's mysterious sound device.

HQ, do you copy?

This is Ekarat.

Calling HQ.

Suddenly, a strange feeling gripped the soldier's heart.

Soldier!

The tiger trails you like a shadow.

His spirit is starving and lonesome.

I see you are his prey and his companion.

He can smell you from mountains away.

And soon you will feel the same.

Kill him to free him from the ghost world.

Or let him devour you and enter his world.

Wait.

Wait for me.

Once upon a time...

...there was a powerful shaman

who could turn into animals.

A creature

whose life exists

only by memories of others.

And now...

...I see myself here.

My mother.

My father.

Fear.

Sadness.

It was all so real...

...so real that...

...they brought me to life.

Once I've devoured your soul,

we are neither animal nor human.

Stop breathing.

Miss you... soldier.

Monster...

...I give you my spirit, my flesh...

...and my memories.

Every drop of my blood...

...sings our song.

A song of happiness.

There...

Do you hear it?
