Absolutely stunning stuff, this is my kind of horror. Loaded with tragedy and symbolism, this one is a goldmine for movie buffs - there's enough substance in both of The Isle's ever silent protagonists and the stunning cinematography to keep this one etched in the memory for quite some time to come. Amongst auteurs of the Far East, very few are in Kim Ki Duk's league to be honest.
Eroticism, brutality & weirdness plus excellent visuals..Curious eh? You'd better be.
