It’s not very often that I will watch a movie all the way through when I don’t understand it. But I caught this movie on TV yesterday that held my attention visually all the way through, despite the fact that it was a Chinese movie with Korean subtitles.
It is called 畫皮 2, known in English, apparently, as Painted Skin: The Resurrection. I found it online by searching for the Korean title which was on the TV, “화피2,” and then searching the Chinese title in the English wikipedia.
Perhaps someday I will try to find it and watch it in a language where I understand it – although it’s also possible that in understanding it better, I would like it less. I found it compelling the way that a surreal but incoherent dream is compelling. It certainly had a lot of violence and weird magic.
