English Dogs

For an independent film made on a shoestring budget, this was an enjoyable watch. Not the usual genre I would go for, but I took a punt after reading a news article about one of the actors being arrested. Something like life imitating art! Made me want to watch.

Interesting indie film shot in London and Bangkok, highlighting the illegal steroid trade. One crazy ride.

Good to see indie cinema is alive and kicking. Brings me back to the days of Old British gangster films but this one has an Asian edge. Lots of fights, a tidy group of actors, some strange American creepy pimp, some nice music, scenic locations and not forgetting some lovely Thai babes or maybe boys?.

Love the shovel, you wouldn't want that bald headed guy doing your garden!

If your a vegetarian please do not watch this movie!

Byron Gibson has played in Only God Forgives before and does not disappoint here. Ron Smoorenburg has so many credits on his belt it is hard to keep track. If you know the acting scene in Thailand a bit, it is great to see so much talent united in one movie. It is a great example that good things can be created even if you have hardly any budget. Keep rocking, Byron!

English Dogs is a fun rampage through London and Bangkok. It follows the story of Byron who lands in Bangkok and heads straight for the red light zone. After having his cards and cash stolen by a wanton neon ballerina he hooks up with old Bangkok hand Dutch at the Old Dutch boozer on Soi Cowboy. Together the pair organize an international steroid export operation and bask in the cash like contented alligators until a new player hits town and puts the squeeze on. Byron must return to London to raise enough cash to free Dutch from the new mob. There's action aplenty in this caper and scenes that conjure up memories of popular crime films Lock Stock, or Rise of the Footsoldier. Worth checking out if you dig crime films and have a connection to Bangkok's seedy underbelly. Highly recommended.
