At Alpha Ground Production, we're no strangers to bringing cinematic nightmares to life. In November 2023 we provided complete local production support on the set of the "River of Blood" movie. It took us deep into the heart of Thailand's jungles.
As your go-to line production company in Southeast Asia, we'd like to share a bit about our adventure and how we tackle the unique challenges of horror filmmaking in exotic locations.
Location Location Location
One of our primary responsibilities was finding those perfect, spine-chilling spots.
Thailand's lush landscapes offer a treasure trove of eerie settings, but pinpointing the exact locations requires more than just a good eye.
Our team spent weeks scouting remote areas, building relationships with local communities, and yes, occasionally swatting away the odd leech. But the real test? Navigating the labyrinth of Thai bureaucracy to secure permits. It's a dance we've perfected over the years, blending persistence, charm, and a deep understanding of local customs.
Building the Dream Team
For "River of Blood," we tapped into our extensive network to bring together a top-notch above-the-line team of local key creatives and below-the-line crew. The local professionals we work with are second to none, bringing invaluable knowledge of the terrain and an uncanny ability to work magic in challenging conditions.
When Things Go Bump in the Night (and Day)
On "River of Blood," we faced everything from curious wildlife interfering with the shoot to sudden downpours threatening to wash out our sets. Our team's quick thinking and problem-solving skills kept the production on track, whether it meant improvising new costumes or mobilizing an entire village to help save our set from flooding.
The Alpha Ground Difference
"River of Blood" showcased our ability to capture Thailand's raw beauty and mystery in a horror context, all while navigating the unique challenges of jungle filmmaking.
So the next time you're watching a movie and marveling at a particularly stunning or creepy Thai location, remember - Alpha Ground crew might just be the unseen hand making that movie magic happen.
