Following the phenomenal success of her explosive screen debut in Chocolate, Thailand's young female martial arts sensation Jija Yanin returns to the screen in Raging Phoenix, an awe-inspiring action-adventure that takes the 'full-contact' combat thrills seen in Chocolate to an inventive and unprecedented level.

With fight sequences supervised by acclaimed Thai producer, director and fight choreographer Panna Rittikrai, Raging Phoenix unveils a brand of never-before-seen martial arts action that combines Muay Thai techniques with Drunken Boxing and dazzling hip-hop dance moves to deliver a ‘real fights, real injuries' action extravaganza like no other.

Yanin stars as Deu, a rock and roll drummer abandoned by her family and recently sacked from her band, who finds herself being pursued by a gang of kidnappers. She is rescued from their clutches by Sanim, a master of an obscure drunken fighting technique known as Mayraiyuth. After informing Deu that she is the target of the Jaguar Gang, a group of criminals who kidnap young women and extract their pheromones to sell as a potent aphrodisiac on the black market, Sanim and his three sidekicks – Pigshit, Dogshit and Bullshit – agree to train her in their unique methods of combat.

Her training complete, Deu insists on joining Sanim and the others in infiltrating the Jaguar Gang's underground lair and bringing down their lucrative and exploitative people trafficking empire. Their mission brings them face to face with a horde of murderous thugs led by a fearsome she-boss who proves to be more than a match for Deu and her new friends, all of whom have their own scores to settle with this most deadly of foes.

Raging Phoenix (cert. 15) will be released on UK DVD (£17.99) and Blu-ray (£24.99) by Cine Asia on 12th April 2010. Featuring Dolby Digital Thai 5.1 sound on the DVD and DTS HD Master Audio 5.1 Thai on the Blu-ray, with optional English subtitles on both and the following extras:
