Thiwa Meyathaisong’s extreme Thai horror, Meat Grinder - about a Thai noodle shop owner who decides on an unhinged way of disposing of customers - is up for a DVD release in the UK next month, via 4Digital. Checking the BBFC website reveals the film was passed “without cuts,” so we can expect it to be the full on gore fest, that only Thailand can deliver. Meat Grinder goes on sale August 23rd. Links to the original Thai trailers below. Both of which aren’t exactly work safe.
