Acacia

I thought Acacia was pretty good, it's not very gory but is scary in its own way. A couple adopt a young boy after not being able to conceive naturally. The boy is a bit of a loner and has a strange obsession with drawing and trees. Everything seems fine until the mother becomes pregnant with a child of her own and the grandmother suggests returning the adopted boy. Their adoptive son feels rejected and does not take having a new baby in the house well at all. Acacia was shot very well the camera work is great, the story can be a bit hard to follow near the end but keeps you guessing.

Dark Temptress

The Host (괴물) bills itself as a monster movie, when in fact it’s so much more, with terrific elements of black comedy and a political undertone that is evident throughout, director Bong Joon-ho has put together a superb film.

Park Chan-wook the man who directed Oldboy is shooting his new Korean horror movie using only an iPhone.

The new film is clled Paranmanjang, which in English means “life full of ups and downs”. The film is about half an hour long, and was made on a budget of only 150 million won ($133,000). The director of this Korean Horror Movie says the iPhone’s small size and light weight, as well as the fact that “anyone can use it,” made it a good tool. His brother, Park Chan-kyong — also a director who collaborated on the film — says a wide variety of camera angles and edits were possible because a number of cameras could be used.
