This isn't a particularly bad movie so much as its structure causes it to be plain boring. After about thirty minutes of classic K-horror monotony, the crux of the story is revealed (in unconventional detail for K-horror), and then the movie delivers another thirty minutes of repetitive visual stimulation. I think it had some pretty neat twists and turns along the way, but I was too bored to tell.

I will probably leave this one alone. I do like most the stuff out of Korea tho.
ReplyDeleteNo Name - This isn't worth the bother, for sure. Have you seen Oldboy?
ReplyDeleteIve been going through as many of the Tartan films as possible since someone at the SD swap meet has been selling them for $4 new, but this one will have to go ignored next time Im there. Leave Cello off your list as well, its a big "meh"
ReplyDeleteYeah; and unfortunately, it being Tartan was the appeal for renting it...
