It's a pretty entertaining monster movie out of Korea. Sort of a mix of the original Godzilla, Shaun of the Dead, and maybe a little bit of Alien thrown in their for suspense.

Well worth the price of admission.

2. I caught it in a tiny little art house cinema.
I prefer those over the big, bloated cineplexes any day.

3. same thing, it's playing at the crest downtown, thats where all of the
smaller or foreign movies play, also all the documentary's. It's a really wonderful place but you have to plan your night.

4. my husband and I saw it
i was surprised to have liked it. It was something that he wanted to see so went along when he told me it had some anti-American undertones.

5. How's the gruesome factor
I love monster movies but I get very squeamish. Jurassic Park, fine, the scene outside the bar at the end of Shaun of the Dead, not so fine.
