Probably one of the most sadistic, fucked up films i've seen in my short life. But my god what a flick!

For those who aren't familiar it's a Korean film, by Chan Wook Park, twisted genious me thinks.

It's about this guy who is imprisoned randomly one night for 15 years and framed for his wife's murder, he has no idea who did it or why, or why they released him at all. So when he finally is released he makes a point of finding out. Fucking intense stuff, lots of extreme violence, brilliantly shot, great acting, incredibly clever, really keeps you watching every second. :yes:

Any other Chan Wook Park fans?

I downloaded it not to long ago, still haven't watched it yet. Need to find some subtitles for it as well.

*Finally* got around to watching this now it's out on DVD in the UK.

Holy shit. Unbelievable film. Watch it, watch it, for the love of God watch it. Don't expect Kill Bill, this is a different kind of film. ct2k summed it up pretty well though.

Saw this last year some time... I definatley gotta get a copy of my own.

It's a very good film. Very good cinematography and whatever.

They're remaking it in America. Will probably suck.
