With a trailer for Jung Huh’s sophomore feature film MIMIC
The idea for this one sounds pretty enticing. It’s all about that pesky application though. South Korea has been quietly making some truly visionary films over the last decade and longer.
It seems based on the South Korean urban legend of “The Jangsan Tiger.” Which originated in Busan, the monster has two rows of teeth and is covered in white fur. Sounds to me like someone survived a snow leopard attack and then well, exaggeration. The Jangsan Tiger is a man-eater and mimics its prey to reel them in to their impending fate.
You may notice Jin Heo in this trailer, she was the mother in law in a movie I can’t even pretend to explain yet love deeply THE WAILING. It’s an absolutely great film, everyone should seek it out.
Rin-Ah Shin was in another great Korean film MEMOIR OF A MURDERER. That’s about an ex serial killer suffering from alzheimers while trying to protect his daughter from her psychopathic boyfriend. It wouldn’t work if it wasn’t full of heart and it works wonderfully.
Anyone else mimicking me and going to try this one?
