Johannes Westin First off, me like everyone else who watched this movie surely was aware that it's a budget production, and would not expect more than what it could've been. But this movie does not fall because of a non-existing budget, but because it's just a complete fail.Why did I watch it? Well, the idea behind the movie is what made me interested, thinking it might be some sort of fusion between Machine Girl and the Guinea Pig series, hoping for a bold, unpolished, and raw story. Much to my disappointment it's not, and here's why: The acting is pathetic, even if it would be a middle school arts project, every single role is executed without heart or motivation. There's no excuse no matter how budget a movie is to allow such poor acting. The editing and filming is just as bad as the acting, where the movie appears to go for artistic and clever shots in order to intrigue the viewer (like many other budget movies), the reality is that it's just annoying and ruins any form flow in the movie, and does definitely not intrigue. The script is not any better; the story is as coherent as if a five year old would've written it. What else can be critiqued.. well everything but the music, and perhaps three minutes of total footage that was actually cleverly made.All in all, this is by far one of the worst budget productions I've ever seen. It's an hour of your life - the only reason why I could even finish it - which does not seem like much, but you're better off watching an our of nyancat than spending your time on this.
morrison-dylan-fan Due to a new Cash Converters having recently opened near by me,I decided to go and have a look to see what DVDs they have in stock.Looking down the shelves,I was very disappointed to see that almost all of the DVD section was filled with very cheap and grotty looking DVDs.Happily,as I started to look at the last row,I suddenly noticed a title which,sounded like a film that would be a fun,gritty revenge movie.Sadly,when I eventually watched the film,I discovered that it was, (even with a running time of 56 minutes)one of the most slow-moving,un-engaging dull movies that I have ever seen.The plot:With being caught giving "full service" outside the house of her teachers grandmother,a young prostitute decides to offer herself to the teacher,hoping that he will accept and not go to the police.Due to fining it almost impossible to say no,the teacher accepts the offer.Sadly,things don't go according to plan,when the teacher gets the prostitute pregnant.Not wanting this to ruin his chance for a promotion,the teacher gets hold of a gun,and kills the prostitute and her unborn child.Wanting her to disappear,he next pays four gangsters to chop her body up,and throw all of the pieces away.After secretly watching the gangsters bin the body parts,a scientist appears,who plans to use the body parts to bring the girl back to life as a cyborg,so she can at last get revenge on everyone that tried to make her disappear.View on the film:As the six minute long opening credits scene began,which features the unnamed prostitute walking down a street,A through suddenly began to enter my head,that even with a short running time,this was going to be a very drawn out film.For the visuals,writer/director Nam Ki-Woong makes the movie look as if he has turned the brightness up on a TV to 11,with the transformation of the girl into a cyborg,,looking like Ki-Woong has just chucked a few cans of paint over the actress.Whilst the outline of the plot should give plenty of opportunities for the movie to have tons of great,gritty action scenes and a fast pace.Ki-woong sadly,completely destroys any chance of that happening,due to making all the scenes be about three minutes too long,and not building up any sense of anticipation for the girl to get her revenge.Final view on the film:A terrible screenplay,which is screeched to death,and embarrassingly bad directing from writer/director Nam Ki-Woong.
christopher-underwood Strange and affecting, this low budget quickie is just that little bit different and well worth a watch. With a running time of only sixty minutes, I was astonished at the length of the opening credits and indeed, thought maybe I had fast forwarded to the end! The movie soon gets going, however, and then it is sex, violence gore and opera all the way. Not just opera, either, the imaginative soundtrack also includes, local and western rock as well as Cambridge's King's College Choir. Some of the goriest moments get the most beautiful music and by the end the combination of erotic and bloody visuals and harsh and inspiring sounds combine to help create an irresistible nightmare fantasy. I became irritated by all the cackling laughter but despite this enjoyed this the more it went on.
K_Todorov This is a curious little film by Korean director Gee-woong Nam, basically an underground low budget feature, that combines surreal and cyberpunk imagery with the classic revenge plot. There are some interesting decisions in the visual aspect of the film which could be described as either good or bad depending on your taste, however it suffers from poor pacing and an unsynchronized soundtrack and you get this feeling that maybe the film makers should have spend a bit more time in the editing room.The story is about, well, the story is about exactly what the title implies. A young schoolgirl turns hooker in the night, playing around with customers in some rather perverse scenarios, date rape, she calls it. Basically the customer pays to, chase, confront and have sexual intercourse with the girl, unfortunately when that moment occurs in the film they begin to... do their thing nearby the house of a lady who later turns out to be the mother of our unlucky heroine's schoolteacher. The teacher confronts the girl, the girl strikes a bargain, followed by a weird dance scene, followed by the date rape thing again, followed by a scene where the girl says to the teacher that she loves him and then it gets interesting. I won't spoil that much, put from that point on the film picks the pace, gets pleasantly weirder, more interesting and outright violent. The ending was a bit random though.Visually the film is impressive considering its budgetary limitations Gee-woong pulls quite a few rabbits out of the hat and succeeds in making the film feel, if not by much, at least a little artistic. The shootout scenes are handled well enough showing of some impressive camera work, during the last few scenes. Some use of light, and wonderful design concepts further strengthen the film's appeal. The score on the other hand, like that ending felt random, tracks from different genres and time periods interwine and while that is hardly a minus, what bothered me was that these tracks, most of the times, hardly felt right. Just didn't fit the mood in the specific scene.It's a short little film with a long title and you can't really hate it, knowing how hard it must have been for these people to write, shoot and edit the footage into an enjoyable if a bit forgettable 60 minute surreal/cyberpunk/revenge film.
