DVD: The Chaser

Korean serial killer movie inspired by true events.


Joong-ho is a pimp who was formerly a police detective and some of his girls are missing.

The entire film is based aroung Joong-ho's search for the latest missing girl who has unfortunately been hired by a homicidal maniac.

Good performances all round and some pretty nasty scenes but I expected more from The Chaser. There are no twists here and no grand plan to the killings, once our man is revealed the chase is on and that's it.

Does it end happily? Well, by the time it got there I didn't care much.

Hopefully the upcoming Hollywood remake will (unusually) be an improvement.

  1. Hollywood likes to change things, so hopefully the studio will make improvements on the script.

  2. If its that bad, just move in another direction. That's my philosophy.
