by Archynetys Entertainment Desk

after undertaker The 2023 film was a success, and viewers loved it because it was fun and quirky. Makes you wonder about the world after death So they scooped up over eight hundred million baht. When The Undertaker 2 arrived, the audience expected it to be more fun than the first part.

Then Undertaker 2 How is it different from the first part of The Undertaker?

The Undertaker 2 shortly after its release Income exceeds 100 million And I don’t know what number to stop at. This story cost 30 million baht to create, with part funding from THACCA (Thailand Creative Culture Agency), an organization that drives Thai soft power. During the Thongthan era, Shinawatra was the Prime Minister.

While the first part of The Undertaker raised more than 10 million baht to make, it grossed 800 million baht, becoming the highest-grossing movie in 9 years. The director wrote the script from things close to his life. family and death

Must admit that The Undertaker is a funny and different horror movie. The first part can be watched on Netflix. Tell the story of the origins that led Jed to graduate from law school and become an undertaker.

and the story of Xiang’s love with Bai Khao who has died. But Xiang couldn’t resist. Jed’s father then came to help perform the spirit removal ceremony for Xiang to meet the rice leaves in the afterlife. With the condition that after this he must help Jed work as an undertaker. Siang and Jed became the undertaker duo of the village.

Undertaker part 2 It starts with Grandma Joi being struck to death by lightning. And I felt awake in the coffin. Oh! “Is this my funeral?” Then he came back to life. Both Lod Dum and Kru Kaew (Lod’s wife) grandchildren were surprised. But later lived happily Simple in the style of an Isaan family Cook food together, plant trees, go out to pick vegetables on the roadside, etc.

When he came back to life Grandma Joi’s behavior has changed for the better. The world after death makes Grandma know that she won’t have long to live. But in the end, you have to accept the truth.

Meanwhile, on the other side of the village, Thup (Phuwasit Anantphonsiri) is unable to get over the loss of his wife (Um-Issaya Hosuwan) and wants to know about the world after death. Because Grandma Joi was still able to come back to life.

I have to accept the bravery of the director who chose a villager like Boontao Kanyapila to take on Grandma Joi, even though he had no skills at all and had never acted in a movie. or appear on the glass screen The only thing is that the acting is good and natural.

If anyone searches for information online To find the history of the actress who played the role of Grandma Joi You won’t find any history at all. And I would like to tell the person who brought Undertaker 2 to the hundreds of millions The main character is Grandma Joi. and very skilled actors

Even though the story line has a hero, the heroine is Thup who lost his lover, Kwan Khao (Um-Issaya), the undertakers Jerd and Siang who besides performing the funeral ceremony He also helped Thup search for information about the world after death until he discovered that “Death is not for study. But it is there for us to understand.”

On the side of Thup and Khwankhao’s family There is also a scene that tells the story of their love. Just the smile of Khwan Khao (Um-Issaya) adds color to this movie. It’s a pity that Um’s role is a bit lacking.

When Kwan Khao leaves Joss has never been able to accept it. And I want her to be resurrected like Grandma Joi. But what Thup thought and understood only aggravated his life. And the afterlife was not as he thought.

The Undertaker 2 may not be wow! In terms of fun and horror like the first part. But it’s still fun. The story line that was laid out in the first part It also makes the viewer continue the story of the horror events in the village.

That wow! In this section is storytelling. There is a mixture of drama that conveys the love and bonding of Grandma Joi’s family. Especially those who miss their grandmother. You may cry sometimes from this movie.

The Undertaker 2 tells the story of the afterlife in a deeper dimension than the first film. Going far into the truth of life Regarding birth, aging, sickness, and death during our lifespan. It is like the short and long incense sticks are not the same.

And you know…when Grandma Joi came back to life? What do you have a dream of doing? If you want to know… you have to go see The Undertaker 2 and you will know that Grandma’s dream is very simple. But the grandchild said Until next time…
