Kiệt Quệ

Nội dung phim

A man (Park Jihwan) lives with a young, possibly retarded woman (Jang Liu) and pimps her out to assorted gimp suit-wearing clients. The couple spends their off-hours on leafletting (“WE HAVE GIRL”) and mindlessly aggressive activities like mudfights and belching contests. The girl makes desultory attempts to escape, but always ends up back with her companion. Eventually, a mysterious woman (Oh Geunyung) appears to take pity and effects a "rescue," before revealing her own gruesome designs on the girl. Exhausted largely abandons the overt humor and satire of the Kim brothers' other works, trading it for ennui and increasingly graphic horrors -- accentuated by the purposely degraded 8mm photography and unnerving ambient noise from Hong Chulki.

 
 
 
 My rip. Viewers will note the periodic appearance of a black screen with a red "X" in the middle; this indicates where footage was removed by the Korean censors. Apparently, the original cut featured excerpts from actual bestiality videos, which went a bit beyond the pale. Use your imagination.
