Now this may be a made for TV Thai horror/crime drama/thriller film, I don't know.  But whatever it was, it was weird.

A  gang of teenagers (a tranvestite, a junkie, a big mouth, and a squeeze) lead by a guy named Joke rob a kindergarten dressed in animal costumes (this is a serious movie mind you).  During their escape they get into an accident and take a hostage on the scene then escape on a train.

Only the train is kind of strange.  There's a bunch of passengers on the train but they seem oblivious to the gang.   They are grouped into three classes one that stands and stares, one that throws a rave party and one that throws a society party.  

The gang decides to rob the society party but that isn't destined to be.  One by one they are killed off by unseen forces - but that's a good thing (at least based on the story).  Anyway, it ultimately ends up in a Matrix-like battle between the hostage and Joke over the fair madien  - the fate of everyone on the train depends on it (really).

Despite the problems with the plot and the questionable origin, this was a fun movie to watch, even if it's just for the cultural aspects like the whole concept behind Train of the Dead.  The end of this movie alone is worth the watch because it suddenly gets deep.  The rest of the movie has plenty of "fake" gore and weirdness to satisfy just about anyone.  

I'm going to recommend it but only if you're adventuresome.

Interesting concept but...

Quoted from mcornetto
...rob a kindergarten dressed in animal costumes

...just out of curiosity, what exactly is there to rob in a kindergarten? Beside toys.

Apparently, there's lots of money to be made from robbing kindergartens in Thailand, though I have no idea exactly how that would work.

There may be money in it, but there's just no honor in knocking over 5 year olds.

I think the point was that the gang was supposed to be the lowest of the low, or the film was just trying to be strange (and it was), or it has something to do with the fact that the leader's name was Joke, or maybe not.
