About The Isle

Product Description THE ISLE mixes erotica and art in the tradition of classic Asian art house horror films like AUDITION, CURE and Hideo Nakata's THE RING, as well as NIGHT OF THE LIVING DEAD and THE EXORCIST, all films full of sex, blood, mutilation, relationship power-plays, nudity and parody. THE ISLE is a remote fishing ground where people go to forget their deepest problems. It's an unearthly locale crouched in awe-inducing early-morning light. The lodgings are a series of small huts floating on an isolated lake and managed by Hee-Jin, a woman who lives alone without speaking, who sells food, beer, night crawlers, and often her body, to the vacationing fishermen. One day, a mysterious man named Hyun-Shik arrives, and before long, Hee-Jin becomes obsessed with the former police officer... Haunting, gorgeous, bewitching, sadomasochistic are just a few of the words used to describe THE ISLE, the erotic art house thriller that caused a sensation at the Sundance, Toronto, and Venice Film Festivals. The latest in a series of South Korean hits, this film by maverick director Kim Ki-Duk caused a scandal upon its release in its homeland, and has gone on to become an international success, shocking journalists and audiences alike. Review Beautiful, angry and sad, with a curious sick poetry, as if the Marquis de Sade had gone in for pastel landscapes... beautiful to look at. --Roger Ebert, Chicago Sun-Times A perversely intriguing (and intriguingly perverse) love story. --San Francisco Examiner The most visually beautiful film of the summer... Eerie and unblinkingly sadomasochistic. --New York Daily News
