the tale of two women. One wants to escape to the idyllic island of Moodo, the other wants to leave it for the big city. Seoul banker Hae-won once visited Moodo to see her grandparents and had befriended Bok-nam a girl who still writes despite Hae-won never bothering to reply. But on Moodo again to regain balance to her life, Hae-won is shocked to see everyone treating Bok-nam like a slave. As practically the only young woman on the island, she is a plaything for the men and a workhorse for the women. But true to form Hae-won remains indifferent to Bok-nam’s pleas for help, not wanting to become involved in complicated situations. Then Bok-nam loses the only thing that had kept her going and finally snaps, a sickle in hand to mete out the bloodiest of revenge. - Frightfest

On September 3rd at BFI Southbank London the Korean director will kick off a series of his movies( which offically start September 1st) which will include a onstage interview  with the man himself. His movies also will go on a tour around the UK with visits to Watershed Bristol, Showroom Sheffield, Cornerhouse Manchester, Broadway Nottingham, Glasgow Film Theatre, Queen’s Film Theatre Belfast and Quad Derby, with the tour lasting into December.
He maybe unknown outside of Asia but this year's Cannes Film Festival the director won his first major award with his latest movie Oki's Movie will be closing this year's Venice Film festival, these are two signs of how well respected the director is within the world film industry. This retrospective is a fantastic way to learn and experience movies from another country or as one experienced movie goer said to me "diverse your pallette", basically he meant think out the comfort box of Hollywood a little and embrace the wonderful movies world cinema has on offer and what better way you guys can start by taking in the retrospective of Hong Sang-Soo
Read the full press release of the director's retrospective plus info on on the movies on tour and i've included some trailers(all youtube links) as well, everything is after the break...

Everybody must be loco down Mexico way, well they are in EL INFIERNO aka HELL! drugs, violence, body parts, guys with poswer tools, its el diablo at his best or should we say Luis Estrada in his latest movie. If you want some  black comedy with lashings of graphical violence but in a funny way Estrada's movie takes the rip out of the Mexican drug trade and Danny Trejo is nowhere to be seen!!!
Check out the trailer after the break...
