Triple Green CineCapital Sets Charlie Nguyen Video Game Adaptation ‘The Scourge’ As First Vietnamese Investment

Southeast Asian film investment fund Triple Green CineCapital (TGC) has announced its first investment in a Vietnamese project, partnering with Charlie Nguyen’s Chanh Phuong Films on The Scourge. 

The horror drama is based on a Vietnamese video game of the same name, which has more than 100,000 downloads and a 94% positive rating on Steam. The film adaptation will keep the game’s main setting – a haunted apartment building inspired by a real abandoned building in Ho Chi Minh City – but will add to the game by mixing in local urban legends, ghost stories and old Vietnamese customs.
