About The Hell of Tarutao
Tarutao Island is Thailand's version of Alcatraz. This jailbreak movie centers on the elaborate schemes of the beleaguered inmates, assisted by some of the native women, to flee the island prison to get their freedom of the mainland. To do this, they must escape brutal guards, and an ocean full of crocodiles.
Directed by Ruj Ronapop, The Hell of Tarutao leans on a strong ensemble — Manop Aussawathep, Sombat Metanee, Aranya Namwong — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about action titles of 1976.
