SAY YES

Korea (south) 2001
Regie kim sung-hong
Darsteller park joong-hoon, chu sang-mi

Was wie eine stille Variante von THE HITCHER anfängt, wandelt sich schleichend in einen düsteren Psychokrieg zwischen Verfolger und Gejagten. Damit nicht genug, bricht plötzlich und unvermittelt ein Horrorszenario in die hypnotische Ruhe ein, das Erinnerungen an THE TEXAS CHAINSAW MASSACRE und ähnliche Abgründe menschlicher Grausamkeit wachruft.

SAY YES überrascht! Kein geschniegelter, familientauglicher Thriller wartet hier auf sein Publikum, sondern ein fieser DOBERMANN, der hinterrücks zubeißt, wenn sich alle schon mit einem überheblich lächelnden “Ich-weiss-was-gleich-kommt!” zurücklehnen.

A young and happy couple picks up a mysterious stranger on their idyllic holiday trip along the Korean coastline. Bad idea! Not only considering the continuance of their happiness, but – worse – the prolongation of their very lives. Always expect the unexpected from SAY YES, and brace yourself for some very nasty, and truly unpleasant twists.

In celebration of his newly published book, Jeong-hyun (Kim Ju-hyuk) and his beautiful girlfriend (Shu Sang-mi) are taking a weekend getaway. Everything is fine and dandy until they stop at a cafe where they run into...a strange man (Park Joong-hoon) who asks them if he can get a lift to their destination...they agree to help the guy out. While on the road, the strange man gets more and more odd by the minute. His wicked presence, sinister stairs and wicked silence start to build extreme tension towards the couple...

This film is absolutely vicious--it grabs you and refuses to let go until the last minute. Highly recommended thriller (with a fair bit of graphic violence). Think "The Hitcher" meets "Cape Fear"." HK Flix.com
