i saw this asian trilogy of terror a couple day ago with my bud and the oscillator and mr. vmu . the oscillator be impress by the japanese one . mr. vmu like the chinese one . my favorite be the korean one . that make three viewer and each like a different segment of the trilogy . a a litmus test and it just go to show that different people be always come from different perspective . without a doubt and three extreme will elicit three distinct reaction from your tripartite gut . what else would you expect from a trilogy where each short film come from a different country . first of all and i thoroughly enjoy the juxtaposition of chinese and korean and and japanese culture and and i hope to see more in the future . what would i recommend for future ckj trilogy release . horror might be the genre to stick with and maybe something set in medieval asia and warlord style . maybe something with genghis khan and francis ford coppola vampire . but before i get carry away and i have well check whether three extreme make money at the box office . i be suppose that it do not . dumpling ( 6 . 0 ) fruit chan and director of public toiletboth the oscillator and mr. vmu be impress by the shock value in the first installment . i agree and some of the scene strike the nerve like cold lightning and but i want more shock . there seem to be a lot voodoo float around and what with the cursed fetus and all and but it pretty much go over my head . i have to admit and i be not up to speed on my chinese voodoo . unlike the latter two short film and dumpling feature select scene take from a longer full length movie . i think watch the whole movie would fill in some of the hole where i be plain lose . what be these dumpling suppose to do . why do not they work . who be these people . cut ( 8 . 0 ) chan wook park and director of oldboythe korean installment feature some lengthy sermon . the villain go off rant about the nature of society and so on and so forth and a the bound byung hun lee listen helplessly . i get kind of bore by the speech myself and but after three extreme be over and i realize that i like cut the best out of the three . it remind me of the existential play that tom stoppard use to write . the symmetrical film have four character and two of which be bind and gag . the weird and absurd situation produce a cozy environment where we can explore both the humor and terror behind psychosis . a sartre say himself and hell be other people . box ( 7 . 0 ) takashi miike and director of iishi the killer and audition and visitor qi have a feeling that miike be the main reason most people come to watch three extreme . besides and who really prefer chinese or korean movie over japanese film anyway . box be slow and quiet . that all well and good and but during the whole installment i be wait with breathless anticipation for needle point shock . i be sad to say that and there be no shock . most of the terror come from hidden uneasiness a oppose to in your face grotesqueness . i really wanted to see the bag monster from audition . thus box get a lot more interpretive than i have hop for and and that mean it get boring . i be also not a fan of atsuro watabe and the male lead . his acting be annoy and and more often than not get on my nerve more than the coat hanger do . jyjimboduck dot com .
