Memories of Murder
Another highly touted South Korean flick, which I thoroughly enjoyed. It's a dark crime-thriller which has some surprisingly funny moments. 'Based' an true events, though we know that the director/writer would have taken quite a few artistic liberties to go with it. Love the style its done in, ecclectic pace to begin with and it captures a grittier reality that isn't always present in movies. Top soundtrack too. Its not really meant to scare you, but it does keep you captivated. Annoyingly, however, is the way in which the DVD cases are made. I found this the case with all my RIALTO Collection DVDs, but the name on the side of the DVD is the wrong way up. The top of the letters should always be the closest to the side which is adjoined with the front cover of the DVD. Minor thing to complain about of course.
