"R-Point"
2004
Directed by Kong Su-Chang
Set
during the Vietnam War, this military ghost story is one of the
highest-grossing South Korean horror films of all time. Gam Woo-Sung stars
as Choi, a shell-shocked Lieutenant who's dispatched to search for a missing
patrol on an eerie, windswept island called R-Point. As Choi's ragtag
military unit combs the island for signs of life, they hear mysterious
squawks emanating from their field radios, and witness spectral presences
slipping into the fog. "The best military-guys-meet-supernatural-evil flick
since Dog Soldiers" (San Francisco Bay Guardian). Korean
with English subtitles. 107
minutes. |
