Director: Dae-wung Lim
Year: 2006
Plot: "A group of elementary students return years later to visit their former teacher-who has recently took ill-in the countryside. Once the group arrives, the film briefly jumps back and forth between the past and present, showing us that this sweet teacher (Mrs. Park) had a cruel side to her. We also find out that most of her former students have murderous intentions towards their teacher. And they're not the only ones with murderous intentions."
The plot doesn't sound too great. It seems to be a little chaotic with all the information that they suggest in the plot, but the plot isn’t really as chaotic. It isn’t hard to keep track of things while you watch this movie.
The storyline of this movie was rather lacking for me. It had a twist in the end that made me think, "Are you kidding me?" It wasn't that the story was shocking or anything. It was that you spend the whole time on something that didn't happen as it is told. Those kind of movies always make me made. It just seems to be a copout and is pretty much the equvalent of saying it was all a dream.
Even though the storyline was rather irritating, there are a few gory scenes that are enjoyable. I am more of a plot makes a good movie kind of person rather than one who would rather see a lot of gore and a shabby plot. However, I still liked this movie. It is odd for me, but the gore really made this movie quite memorable.
Check out this movie if you like gore. It doesn't have an over abundance of gore but what it does have might just stick with you. Though, if you want a clever plot and a creepy atmosphere, you might want to skip this one.
