Production

This is the first Khmer monster film and also the first graphic film. It was produced and distributed by Campro Production, one of the best Khmer production companies.

The film's plot is about the journey to Ratanakiri, but the footage was shot in part of Mondulkiri Province as there also were the appearance of indigenous peoples in this film.

In this film, the giant snake is actually a python, but they used special effects to make it look giant-sized. Several scenes of the film use professional computer, graphic, and sound effects techniques to make everything seem unbelievable. This production is seen as the first strong special effects film for Cambodia.
