The Last Temptation in Thailand Overviews
Even as I worked on this project I didn't know if it was real or not. But if you ask me about it, I will deny it all... Mixing genres like most people mix drinks, the "Last Temptation in Thailand" is a reality based lie wrapped in a philosopher's illusion of truth. The Buddha said desire causes pain, but I went to Thailand anyway. My story begins on the road to Bangkok. It ends hot on a cold trail to nowhere - a six month odyssey through ancient temples, whore-bars and even a brush with love. The open road called, I had no choice, I had to go. The Buddha headed out on the open road over 2500 ago years to face his final temptation under the Bodhi tree. When the gods sent down the most beautiful goddess in the heavens to tempt his mortal soul the accounts read, "He almost wavered, but then he wavered not". Me? I waver with even the slightest hint of a comely bargirl nearby. Thailand is a place where not only are the footsteps of the Buddha still echoing in the sands of time, but where the women are free and the men don't mind paying the price. Every desire has it's price, though, as I end up paying for love like most men pay for a cold beer and find the whole thing kind of liberating. So when love finally knocks on my door I know it's time to go, lest I pay the ultimate price... freedom is a hell of thing to lose to any woman's charms. Finally, hearing echoes of the Buddha's ancient call to moksha or liberation, I hop aboard a boat to nowhere sailing through the beatific seas of Thailand. Hot on a cold trail, I hear rumors that the illusive Buddha was last seen somewhere in a bar down south... I had no choice, I had to go.

This film will not appeal to everyone. You may need at least a passing interest in the subject matter to enjoy it. I found the DVD to be an insightful and interesting look at the relationship between Thai women and Western males.
There are abundant images of Thai beauties and the vibrant nightlife, filmed mainly in Bangkok. The film goes deeper however and gives the viewer insight into the buddhist views and approach to life typical of Thais. I found these views refreshing and share much of the filmakers philosophy on life and love.
Highly recommended and thoroughly enjoyable!
