HORROR OCTORBOR! Three...Extremes (2004)
from Alcohollywood
We're continuing our HORROR OCTORBOR FOUR-BOR world tour of foreign-language horror films this week with returning guest Julia and the 2004 Asian horror anthology Three…Extremes! A triple feature of spooky shorts from Hong Kong (Dumplings, directed by Fruit Chan), South Korea (Cut, directed by Oldboy's Chan-wook Park) and Japan (Box, directed by Ichi the Killer's Takashi Miike) feature a delightfully unsettling mix of scares. From an aging actress turning to a disgusting alternative remedy to keep her vitality, to a disgruntled extra torturing his neglectful director, to a young woman looking for her long-lost sister, this is a fantastic sampler pack to an entire continent's worth of horror. Check it out along with our custom cocktail and drinking rules! NOTE: If Jared sounds a little tinny for the first few minutes, it clears up at about minute 8. Sorry for the inconvenience, but it gets fixed quickly! (Thanks to our sponsor Basecamp as part of the Chicago Podcast Coop!) Related Links: Trish's fantastic fanart for Some Kind of Goblin!
