Korean with English subtitles
A country hospital in Korea in the 1950s. A staff composed largely of medical students learning their trade. A mysterious body discovered frozen into the ice. It is a perfect recipe for something horrific and that is exactly what hot new Korean cinema talents the Jung Brothers deliver with Epitaph, a trio of interconnected stories.
The duo learned their craft from the best, working as key members of Park Chan-Wook’s technical team, and with their first film, they have produced a gorgeously eerie mood piece, one that favours an ominous, creeping menace to in-your-face scares. Loaded with sumptuous photography, disturbing imagery and a strong cast, Epitaph will simply burrow its way in to you, leaving its mark long after the final frame has run. (Todd Brown, Fantasia)
