A scene from Mon Mon Mon Monsters.

At first glance, Giddens Ko’s latest movie Mon Mon Mon Monsters may seem like a gory slasher flick. But the best-selling novelist turned filmmaker said that there is more to the movie than meets the eye.

Better known by his pen-name Jiubadao (Nine Blades in Mandarin), Ko was recently in town to promote Mon Mon Mon Monsters with the movie’s leading man Kent Tsai.
