Vietnamese Horror Adaptation 'The Scourge' Secures Major Investment from Triple Green CineCapital

Triple Green CineCapital (TGC), a Singapore-based film investment firm, has announced its entry into the Vietnamese market through a strategic partnership with Chánh Phương Films to produce a big-screen adaptation of the horror video game 'The Scourge' (Tai Ương). The project, which was unveiled to international buyers at the Cannes Film Market by Skyline Media, aims to translate the game's atmospheric, folklore-driven terror into a feature-length cinematic experience. This investment marks a significant milestone for TGC, following its industry debut at the JAFF Market, and signals a growing interest from regional investors in the transmedia potential of Southeast Asian intellectual property. By combining local cultural narratives with international funding, the partners seek to capitalize on the increasing global demand for authentic, non-Western horror. This collaboration is expected to set a new benchmark for how local Vietnamese game titles can be successfully adapted for global audiences, potentially paving the way for further cross-border investment in the region's burgeoning entertainment sector.
