Unlike what its title might suggest, director Jeong Gil-yeong's "Our Town" is not some fuzzy family drama. It's a crime thriller where five women are brutally killed. Not another serial killer story, you may say. But, again, the film kills your expectations as it takes you on a novel cinematic experience ― a flight into the mind of not one, but two, killers on the loose in what could be "our" neighborhood.
First off, the title needs some explanation. It is a literal translation of the original title "Uri dongne". A Los Angeles Times column (July 24, 2006) once highlighted how the Korean language thoroughly reflects the collective nature of Koreans, who prefer the unassuming "we" over the individual "I", and thus leads to the stapling of group pronouns "our" (uri) rather than "my" in front of objects. So saying "our house" or "our town" creates a communal sense of ownership and establishes a sense of mutual connection.
When a serial killer is on the loose in a small town, a tempting option for another potential killer is committing a copycat murder. "Our Town" (Uri dongnae), the debut feature by director Jeong Gil-yeong, is a thriller that spins a grim and brooding tale out of a confrontation between a serial killer and a copycat killer.
The movie starts with a scene where a twentysomething girl is found dead at an elementary school playground. With her neck tied to a horizontal bar, she seems to have suffered severe stab wounds before or after a brutal murder.
It turns out that the murder is the latest in a string of similar cases involving the same town in Seoul. All the victims are women, ranging from a child to a housewife in her 30s, and all the townspeople become afraid to go out, while the police are faced with embarrassing bad publicity.
Jae-shin (Lee Seon-gyoon), a detective who leads an investigation into the serial killer case, struggles hard to find clues, with his boss getting a...| More
