About This DVD

Bok Nam (Seo Young Hee) lives on a remote rural island where she is cruelly abused and exploited by the men and older women of the village. Her pleas for help fall on deaf ears, as the violence and abuse worsen. She decides to run away, but her daughter gets killed while they're trying to escape the island. After losing her only reason for living, Bok Nam picks up a sickle to exact revenge, one by one, on those who drove her over the edge.

Premiering at the Cannes Film Festival's International Critic's Week section, the violent thriller Bedevilled punches hard with its horrifying, two-fold tale of abuse and vengeance. Jang Cheol Su, Kim Ki Duk's former assistant director, picked up many Best New Director awards for his debut feature, which took the top prize at the 14th Puchon Fantastic Film Festival. Seo Young Hee (The Chaser) delivers a gripping performance as an innocent woman who descends into murder and madness. From abuse and apathy stem a bloody path of devastation that is harrowing, suspenseful, and not likely to be forgotten.
