An interesting though twisted movie, and I must say I expected the ending, just because the film needed a twist to it. Korea has certainly had it’s fair share of completely disgusting revenge films of late, and this one has an added twist. Are we watching the twisted mind of a serial killer, or could this crazy man be right that Aliens have invaded earth and he must contact them to save his mother from her 5 year long coma. Interesting but not too great. I certainly wouldn’t watch it again.
Lee Byeoung Gu (Sin Ha-gyoon 신하균) is a man who has gone over the edge. He has had a horrible life, and his mother has dropped into a coma after an accident at a chemical factory. And he is now convinced that Aliens from Andromeda have come to earth, and have the same genetic structure, but very different nervous systems. He and his girlfriend, the chubby and ugly tight rope walking Su ni kidnap the factory owner Kang Man Shik and torture him to find out about the alien invasion.
REVIEW CONTAINS SPOILERS…

The only clue the police have is pharmaceutical speed found at the scene, Inspector Choo (Lee Jae-yong 이재용) and Inspector Kim (Lee Joo-hyeon 이주현) investigate outside of the orders of their boss Lee (Ju Bong Gi) who is out to solve the case because the kidnapee’s wife is the police Chief’s daughter. Kang tries to escape unsuccessfully a couple of times, and Choo is killed by Lee Byeoung Gu. On his final round of torture in front of the now captured Kim, Kang Man Shik details the whole history of the earth and the aliens, and takes Lee to his factory to contact the aliens. Lee and Su Ni are killed when the cops arrive, but as they leave the scene beams from the sky hit all the cops, and Kang Man Shik is beamed up because he was an alien, and they give up their experiments on earth to make humans less violent, and just destroy the planet.

Pretty lame, no wonder it bombed in Korea! Torture Porn Korean style, trying to be quirky, but just messed up really.
