Just watched this korean peice of art, and all i have to say is WOW, just WOW... one of the best movies i have watched in recent years, and with a totally mindblowing soundtrack to boot.

The imdb link:

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0364569/?fr ... ft=21;fm=1

Though i would recommend not to read about it on imdb, and just go ahead and watch the movie, it makes it so much better.

OH MY GOD!! Cracc thanks for recommending this. This movie is fucking amazing and unforgettable. NOT for the feint of heart as it is very intense and violent, but holy shit it is awesome. Really tho if you don't like dark/violent movies, don't see it...everyone else should seek this out and watch it! It's easily one of the best thrillers I've seen in a long time.

Also, they are apparently remaking the movie for the US , which is being directed by Justin Lin, who wrote/directed "Better Luck Tomorrow", which was also a good film imo. However I heard the US one is going to be toned down a lot, so go find the original!!
