In the spirit of the new-age slasher, this Korean flick is telling about a bunch of young internet chatter decide to make an off-line meeting in a beautiful beach. Little does they know a banned ex-member of the group, called Sandmanz, start to kill them one by one. The result is `Bloody Beach', a gore-fest.
Bloody Beach a.k.a. Haebyeoneuro Gada is the Korean attempt to make a decent slasher movie. The result is seemed quite well. Although Bloody Beach comes in the post-Scream era but the director seem very influence by the 80's slasher flick. There's many reference from that era and that makes Bloody Beach as a fine combination of 90's and 80' flick. Actually, there's nothing new here and there's routine and cliché, and the plot holes is quite abundance, but since this is a splatter gem, we can't complaint. As a Korean movie, Bloody Beach also has a bit different approaching in the story line rather than the American counterpart. The dramatic tense is build well. However I must warn you, because the pace is slow-moving, especially in the first half. But after the second killing, the pace move tolerable and able to build the fright rhythms it needs. The gores are somewhat strong and still in the cheesy concept but it nicely blend and make me do not much complaint of it. If you like a slasher with different ambience, you should check this. An Asian splatter is definitely rare to find, especially the nice one.
hmmm, this kind of story have been done sveral times now. I wish it was released here. I have to picture the cover on my mind incase I stumble on korean dvds in manila.
Uhmmm...I'm just wondering, I read an article about this...I've heard that one of the actresses that stars in this movie comitted suicide, her filmography includes bloody beach. I'm not sure if this is the Movie they meant. She really died young, 25 years old....I think she's the lead actress in the drama, Phoenix...
By the way, did Jae Hee die in this movie???? just curious.
Anyways, Jae Hee looks really thin in this movie...but no matter what he still looks cute...heheheh
Has anyone personally watch this movie? Is it worth to watch? I'm considering of buying it, but seeing how it is a horror movie and that I've seen the trailer... it doesn't seem at all frightening. I'm very harsh on horror movie; it has to have a good concept for me to enjoy it.
Seeing how he plays a small role in this movie, he's probably killed off. =/
sadly we havent watched it yet.... but from the reviews we've read...seems to me this movie isnt impressive...we just posted it here coz jae hee's included in it....but if you want to see him in his early works...go look for the video....
