In 1983 before the giant Suvarnabhumi international airport was built, the neglected and unoccupied area was called "King Cobra Swamp" by the locals. As building commenced, a huge old Banyan tree blocked the constructions path. A work crew call in a mechanical digger to remove the tree. As the roots are torn from the ground 1000s of cobra bones explode from the earth tearing them to pieces. After the passing of the grim massacre, witnesses who survived tell strange stories about and evil Cobra spirit. Years later when a new apartment block was built on the ground, Nin, the buildings owner has to face the horrifying matter when hundreds of Cobra hell bent on killing every living person in the apartment appear. People believe that again it is the vengeance of the Spirit. How will they survive, when being hunted by vengeance without mercy?

演而優則導的瑪莉路易斯‧依莉貝以令人驚豔的光影戲法改編德國文學與音樂中的經典作品《魔王》。導演一方面結合自然場景、歌舞疊影與特技攝影，成功地詮釋歌德敘事詩中的奇幻想像；另方面也巧妙地運用蒙太奇式的剪輯手法，體現舒伯特藝術音樂中充滿動態感的創作調性。依莉貝以懸疑、獨特的視覺語彙成為開創法國有聲電影史新頁的代表人物之一。
