stoker (2013). directed by chan-wook park.


by regular chan-wook park standard, this film is mild. by regular hollywood standards though, this is pretty violent of the sadistic kind. 

i like his attention to details and the photography direction. it made us aware of how sensitive india stoker is to her surroundings, something that gives a clue to her predatory instincts. acting and direction are great - all three central characters are weird enough to exist in chan's universe of gothic family - my only complain is - the script is in wanting of greater, deeper motivations - something that chan's films often use as bait to keep the audience begging for each coming scenes.
