Greg Fleet: Thai Die (DVD), Bounty Films, Comedy

When comedian Greg Fleet decided he needed a holiday 'somewhere exotic and somewhere cheap', Thailand seemed like the perfect choice. Little did he realize that this impulsive trip away would turn out to be somewhat more exciting than the brochure promised. Abandoning himself to new experiences, and his desire to 'just let things happen', Fleety is befriended by a Thai man and finds himself caught up in a gambling scam where he is kidnapped, threatened with an axe and forced to let some cunning gangsters have their way with his mother's credit card. He then crosses the Thai-Burmese border into a war zone, with a seventeen-year-old film nut as his guide, and ends up in the jungle hideout of a rebel training camp under fire from the military. As you do. Every traveller's worst nightmares happen to Fleety in this hilarious, action-packed film that will make you think twice about relying on the kindness of strangers.
