Cool video.
Reminiscent of the early work of Ishii & Tsukamoto, slightly less hectic, slightly more colorful, but nice and abstract and conceptual. Indie fetish cinema with a strong genre injection, the kind of film I always want to sit down to watch.
Park also takes a smart approach. We follow a mattress, which on the one hand makes it somewhat fragmentary, but on the other hand it gives him space to explore different settings. He doesn't have to worry too much about narrative coherence either, because the path of this film is actually set from the start.
This is above all a film that relies on its atmosphere, and that's fine. Visually excellent, the soundtrack a bit better but very appropriate, and the mix of drama and horror/fantasy is also well executed. In addition, the film does not drag it out unnecessarily. And that from South Korea, speaking of surprises.
4.5* and a extensive review
