유령이 나온다는 숲, 거미숲에 관한 제보를 받고 취재를 떠난 <미스터리 극장> 강민PD. 다음날 심한 부상을 입은 채 발견된다. 혼수상태에서 14일만에 깨어난 그는 거미숲에 두사람의 시체가 있다는 충격적인 말을 내뱉는다. 이 소식을 들은 그의 친구 최형사는 거미숲으로 찾아간다. 그리고 그의 진술대로 살해당한 지 오래된 듯, 부패한 상태로 남아있는 남, 여 시체 두 구를 발견한다. 그런데 죽은 여자, 즉 방송국 리포터 황수영과 강민과의 내연의 관계가 밝혀지면서 강민은 유력한 살인용의자로 떠오른다.
사건의 진실을 밝히기 위해 최형사와 함께 알리바이를 되짚어 가는 강민. 강민에게 거미숲에 관한 제보를 했던 여인을 찾는 것으로 수사는 좁혀지고 그는 취재 과정에서 들었던 거미숲의 전설에 관한 실체를 파헤치기 시작한다. 그러나 거미숲의 비밀에 다가가면 다가갈수록 미로에 갇힌 듯 더욱 큰 혼란이 몰려오기 시작한다. 과연 그는 거미숲의 미스터리와 살인사건의 진실을 밝혀낼 수 있을 것인가?

Professional Review of "Spider Forest DTS"
|
This is a very complex film, which has qualities like the distorting mirror of legend: what you get out is a twisted reflection of what is in your soul. Some will dismiss it as boring or confusing, but I think this would be a mistake. There's a lot more here than meets the eye. The film opens with a slow pan through a moonlit forest. As you might guess, the spindly trees are draped with soft webs, and the whole scene has a dreamy, timeless feel. The dream slowly turns sour, as real dreams are wont to turn into nightmares, as Min enters the cabin. There's something queasily disturbing about the murder scene: instead of fresh crimson blood splashed around the walls, there are smears of brown crusting the cushions. The first corpse, disclosed by degrees, is in a ludicrously undignified position, and clearly dead for some hours. This discovery of a stale murder scene is somehow more chilling than most cinematic renditions which feature splashed crimson: the grotesquerie of the corpse underlines the sinking horror of the scene. When Min collapses onto the couch gagging, I almost threw up in sympathy. Director Song has managed to create a half-waking dream that leads the audience into the twisted paths of Min's mind. Kam Woo Seeing, as Min, abandons the 'I don't care' detachment he adopted for R-Point in favor of a plethora of emotions. Horror, fear, desperation, bewilderment, rage, and bleak depression contort Kam's pleasant features, accompanied by massive bruising from a serious head injury. I had to convince myself that the bandaged, weary-eyed patient staggering from his bed in a search for answers, was the same man as the smiling, playful husband of the flashbacks. Min's story is told through a mix of current timeline, semi-dream sequences and flashbacks. Each sequence, however, begins with an awakening. This is at least partly because Min sustained some serious head injuries after his first awakening, and keeps lapsing into a semi-comatose state. So we're never sure what is real (and real-time), what is flashback, what is imagined, and what is imagined flashback. The whole film has the feel of a fever dream, and avoids easy resolutions and hence easy description. This really makes it a better film, because it will leave you wondering. Images and scenes will pop into your head for days afterwards, teasing and beguiling. You'll begin to feel that, if only you could review that scene, or that one, it would all fall into place. All would make sense. Which makes you Min. Welcome to a disturbing world. 8.5 pairs of dolls out of 10 by Alison Jobling - Heroic-Cinema.com |
