Three Extremes, Embodiment of Evil
Just watched 'Three Extremes' and 'Embodiment of Evil'
TE must be highly recommended, I think there's something in it for anyone with a taste for intelligent horror. If you don't know, this is 3 short movies - 'Dumplings' by Fruit Chan is a Hong Kong movie about an aging actress' pursuit of beauty through sickening and extreme methods. 'Cut' by Park Chan Wook is a fast paced tale about a bitter young actor, twists, gore and plenty of interesting dialogue. The last short is 'Box' by Takeshi Mike - dreamlike and perplexing - was engrossed in this. Very satisfying movies all in all.
EoE - wow, I was really looking forward to watching this - the premise sounded great. Coffin Joe looks just like my old maths teacher so did little to scare me. He moved about like Papa Lazarou making me take him even less seriously. Crap story, crap movie, funny villain.
