Getting set for the weekend,I decided to check Shudder UK's Twitter page. Finding on their page a announcement of a Korean Horror being uploaded,I got ready to encounter the Monstrum.
View on the film:
Causing absolute carnage in the 16th century King Jungjong's reign,co-writer/(with Heo-dam and Jeong-uk Byeon) director Jong-ho Huh & cinematographer Dong-Yeong Kim fire flaming arrows at the Manstrum tipped with long shaking dolly shots bringing a Dynasty Warriors flavour to the battles, via the dolly shots rapidly spinning round the fighting warriors. Whilst the CGI can look iffy when it is running towards people, Jong-ho gives Monstum a mighty roar, thanks to a limited use of fire highlighting the hairs on the beast.
Bringing Monstum to life in the middle of a battle for the kingdom, the screenplay by Jong-ho, Byeon and Heo-dam string the Monster Movie with high-wire Wuxia Melodrama from Yoon Gyeom fighting to keep Jong's kingdom secure,as others see the Monstum as the chance to stage a coup. Spending the first 40 minutes building up the monster with Gyeom finding the leftover bodies of victims left in its path, the writers oddly undermine the threat of the beast, with badly judged fart jokes taking the roar from the Monstrum.
