I really enjoyed Marry My Dead Body, but the Thai version was even funnier and way queerer than the original. I absolutely loved it. It managed to balance vulnerability, complexity, and genuine laughs while smartly exploring themes like identity, sexuality, acceptance, and unfair social norms.

Even though some scenes are hilarious, it’s not just a comedy. At its core, it’s a human drama with surprisingly moving and profound moments that made me cry, get angry, and reflect on a lot of things. Meen and Titi are forced to face realities neither of them wanted, and in doing so, they form a deeply intimate connection. In many ways, they’re true soulmates.

But the real scene-stealer is Titi’s grandmother, Piyamas. She’s always been his rock, his biggest supporter, his fiercest ally. Her love for him is unconditional. Two of my favorite moments are when Titi finally understands the reasons behind his father’s actions, and when Meen builds a deep bond with Titi’s father and grandmother, who welcome him as part of the family.

The whole cast delivers solid performances, but Billkin and PP completely own every scene they’re in, whether together or apart. They’re both outstanding actors, and I’d love to see them on screen more often. On top of that, their chemistry is exceptional. There’s a rare kind of synchronicity, honesty, and affinity between them that makes all their characters unforgettable. Highly recommended.
