October 29, 2026 — The Netherlands gets a demon hunt. Not the kind you’d expect from a quiet autumn Thursday, but one packed with martial arts, cross-cultural chaos, and a cast that reads like a global casting sheet: Arjan Bajwa, JC Lin, Regina Lei, Jack Kao, Harry Chang, Jayanta Meetei. That’s Demon Hunters, the India-Taiwan co-production that’s finally hitting Dutch cinemas via LAX Entertainment, after already rolling out in Taiwan, India (JioHotstar, Prime Video), and the U.S. (Apple TV, Amazon, YouTube). No surprise it’s landing on screens in Pathé and Kinepolis, this isn’t your average genre mash-up. It’s a supernatural action-comedy with roots in both regions, built to travel. And now it’s doing exactly that. Soeniel Sewnarain of LAX says the film stood out because it’s ‘genuinely different’. A rare thing in international releases. He didn’t just see a movie. He saw a bridge. The film’s journey began in Taiwan through Vie Show Cinemas, then found digital homes across India and the States before crossing the Atlantic. Cindy Shyu of Light House Productions called the Dutch rollout an ‘important milestone’. Gayathiri Guliani of Kleos Entertainment Group said the whole project was designed to be borderless. ‘Stories rooted in one culture can find resonance in another when they’re driven by universal entertainment values,’ she said. That’s not just marketing speak. It’s what happens when you mix Indian energy with Taiwanese precision, throw in a supernatural twist, and let the chaos unfold. The film premiered at Busan’s Asian Contents & Film Market, where the real talk wasn’t about box office numbers, but about who’s actually watching beyond their borders. Now, the Netherlands is next. And if the buzz around its eclectic cast and genre blend is anything to go by, this might just be the start of something bigger than a regional release. Or maybe it’s just a well-timed Halloween hit. Either way, the demons are coming. And so are the tickets.
