News > Ong-Bak Director's Delicious Chocolate Trailer Online

Written by Lucas C Haberstich

Lovers of crazy action scenes made using crazier stuntmen are doubtlessly familiar with Prachya Pinkaew's previously films starring Tony Jaa.  Well, the Thai director's next flick is Jaa-less, but if the trailer that's popped up over at Twitch is any indication, Nicharee “Jeeja” Vismistananda will prove herself up to the same standards by fighting waves of gang members while in actual physical danger.  For our viewing pleasure.

Chocolate, the film's title, refers to the candy-coated confections the young autistic lead character eats by the handful while watching martial arts films on television and learning to fight, which is particularly influenced by Bruce Lee.  This vigorous training will be needed when she embarks on a mission to collect the debts owed to her ill mother.

The trailer includes what some call 'bloopers': members of the cast laying wounded or falling from great heights.  Wokka wokka wokka!
