I finally broke out my 3 Extremes DVD;
Dumplings (Fruit Chan) - short version.
Never heard of the director before, but I'll definately have to check more of his films out. Unlike most of the asian cinema I've seen, with it's dark scenery and washed out look, the film used here is very sharp and vibrant in colour. It looks stunning. I wouldn't classify this as horror, but it is very, very eerie and creepy. The story was unique, and the effects were very well done. I was confused by a bit of it though...
SPOILERS
...who was the girl and man in the murder/attack scene?
So in the end, she aborted the baby and brought it to Aunt Mei to have more dumplings made? Fucked up!
I plan on watching the feature-length version later on.
