August 12th, Thailand’s Mother’s Day: Part 1 – Underworld Blood Wars & White Oleander


In Thailand, Mother’s Day takes place on August 12 to coincide with Her Majesty Queen Sirikit the Queen Mother’s birthday. To know more information about its celebration and history check the following websites:



Now, to begin with my two-part special dedicated to Mother’s Day, I would like to share the following fan tributes to my two favorite movies:

Underworld Blood Wars (2016, Dir. Anna Foerster) is the last one of a vampire horror movie franchise. We follow the vampire Selene and her daughter Eve who is half vampire and half Lycan!



Next, White Oleander (2002, Dir. Peter Kosminsky) is a drama movie. Basically, it tells the life of Astrid Magnussen as she goes from one foster to home to another while her mother Ingrid is in prison. Ingrid was imprisoned for murdering her boyfriend with a poison that contained white oleander. The relationship between the two changes drastically as Ingrid has to grow up on her own surviving each foster adoption.
