60 of 144 · most liked firstMovie suggestion for tonight, I SAW THE DEVIL! Wanna have a really bad time? Oldboy's Choi Min-sik plays a sadistic serial killer who gets chased down by the fiance or one of his victims, Lee Byung-hun (A Bittersweet Life, Squid Game), who catches and releases him to have his revenge over and over.
unlabelledView post →I keep recommending the movie I Saw The Devil, it's one of the best bad times you could have, totally harrowing, feel like shit after watching it, 10/10
unlabelledView post →Asked on stream if do movie recommendation threads, and I sure do! It's been a while though, and I've often done them for horror movies around Halloween time. But check out I Saw The Devil if you want a good bad time, South Korean revenge thriller from the same director as A Tale Of Two Sisters.
unlabelledView post →Everyone should go watch The Quiet Family It's director Kim Jee-woon's (A Tale of Two Sisters, I Saw The Devil) first film, a dark comedy about a family who open a countryside guesthouse and when their first guest commits suicide, worried it'll ruin their reputation, decide to hide the body.
unlabelledView post →Good example of this, Kim Jee-woon Phenomenal director, made some of the best movies of all time in my humble opinion, like for example A Tale of Two Sisters and I Saw The Devil, a top tier talent, and they had him direct the 2013 Schwarzenegger movie The Last Stand, which was okay, it was fine.
unlabelledView post →The Chaser is on Shudder if you want to see an extremely bleak, feel bad movie, one I'd rank up there with I Saw The Devil.

unlabelledView post →It's not a bad movie by any stretch, don't get me wrong. But it was a late career Arnold Schwarzenegger movie with Johnny Knoxville playing comic relief, it hardly felt like a movie from the guy who had just made I SAW THE DEVIL. www.youtube.com/watch?v=1Z7u...
unlabelledView post →Ok October starts soon, watching (at least) one film per day. Starting with I Saw The Devil. Like… do people want a quick write up/review of each movie? Is that a thing people would like?

unlabelledView post →#NowWatching I SAW THE DEVIL (2010). Director: Kim Jee-woon. Lee Byung-hun, Choi Min-sik. Twisted game of cat-and-mouse headlines this relentlessly unpleasant revenge fantasy from Korea. Rewatch. #filmsky 📽
unlabelledView post →Basically the worst fucking story you’ve ever heard (so many bad things happen) but the best telling of that story... Absolutely insane in terms of violence. An iconic revenge tale. My ★★★★★ review of I Saw the Devil on @letterboxd: boxd.it/8nMzc9
unlabelledView post →Picking a random film from my collection to show off for no real reason! Day #149 "I Saw the Devil" (Kim Jee-woon/2010) Excellent but absolutely brutal revenge film. One of the most disturbing games of cat and mouse committed to film. In other words, I loved every minute of it. Check it out!
unlabelledView post →#ACenturyOfCinema, movie 79: 2010 I SAW THE DEVIL
unlabelledView post →The thing about the first Mad Max, and something like I Saw The Devil is how they handle “heroic revenge“ tropes. at the end of the movie they’re not in a better place, they had to call themselves up to just being empty again. Fucking bleak. Something organic about that ugliness.
unlabelledView post →I would suggest being careful with a few of these movies, some of them like I Saw The Devil, Inside, The Chaser, When Evil Lurks, Green Room are extremely violent and gory, so check out any content warnings you may need. Sometimes I like a movie with scenes of explicit violence and gore. Be warned.

unlabelledView post →🎬 16 years ago today (August 12, 2010) the twisted and visceral "I Saw the Devil" premiered in South Korean theatres! The film was directed by Kim Jee-woon and stars Lee Byung-hun & Choi Min-sik. If Revenge movies are your thing and you haven't seen this one before, you're in for a hell of a ride!
unlabelledView post →One of the things I love about the horror genre is that so many of the movies clock in at about 1.5 hours, and sometimes even closer to an hour! Welp, finally gonna do what I’ve been putting off for some time now… Watch the 2.5 hour Korean film “I Saw the Devil.”

unlabelledView post →Special shout out to I Saw The Devil (2010)! Korean Revenge movies are next level!😂
unlabelledView post →That then affects what the root of fear for the film is. Like I’m watching I Saw the Devil right now and I thought maybe there was something even a little utilitarian there. Nope. Dude just super fucking hates women. Deeply.
unlabelledView post →I still remember the first film I ever streamed. Back when LoveFilm Instant was a thing (pre Netflix?) so it was probably around 2012 via Xbox 360 app. Perhaps unwisely I picked a 2.5hr movie as this streaming test; I SAW THE DEVIL. It worked fine, and I was then part of the streaming future.

unlabelledView post →I SAW THE DEVIL is one of the most sadistic revenge movies I’ve ever seen. The level of brutality is an 11/10. This is a film full of devils, each of which you’ll hate in a completely different way. What a fantastic picture. Blood-Soaked Summer continues. 🕸️🩸📽️
unlabelledView post →I Saw the Devil, as I certainly think that it is a really chilling Horror movie that definitely gave me a chills when I watched it, especially when it manages to go so freaking hard in terms of it's horror elements that offer it's own interesting perspective of morality and revenge consuming us.
unlabelledView post →Choi Min-sik in I SAW THE DEVIL is hands down one of the scariest serial killers I've ever seen in a movie. It's the matter of fact nature and abject cruelty of his character that really gets under my skin.

unlabelledView post →I Saw The Devil (2010) Kim Jee-Woon has so much range as a director, from horror to western comedy to spy thriller to revenge movie. This is the latter, and it's utterly enthralling in how the main character deteriorates into the very thing he hates. It's cruel, and hype, and the ending is so good

unlabelledView post →It’s a 2013 Arnold Schwarzenegger movie directed by Kim Jew-woon, director of A Bittersweet Life, I Saw the Devil, and The Good, The Bad, The Weird. Need to revisit it myself. It’s always interesting to see Korean directors do English language films.
