I Saw the Devil
*We all have a Monster within; the difference is in degree, not in kind
- *Douglas Preston, The Monster Of Florence
One of the greatest revenge films ever made and one of the most spectacular horror films ever released. The duet of Choi Min-Sik and Lee Byung-Hun are like two perfect notes in a harrowing, organ-churning song. You get the perfect amount of information needed in the first ten or so minutes to have the narrative blast off into all of its bloody efficacy.
No revenge narrative is doing it quite like this film and that's why I can't help but love it so dearly. An absolutely GNARLY thrill ride.
