YesAsia Editorial Description

Creaky stairs, dusty windows, long and narrow hallways, bizarre graffiti, dark apartments...Sorum (Korean for goosebumps) is so scary that it will give you goosebumps. Yong Hyun moves into Mi Gum Apartment 504, where novelist Kwang Tae died in a fire. Seeing the stained walls and ceilings with soot, Yong Hyun finds the apartment spookily familiar despite the fact that he has never been there before. Hearing strange sounds coming from the hallway, Yong Hyun senses a disaster creeping up on him...

또 하나의 비극이 시작된다. 504호, 초대받지 않은 그가 온다.
곧 헐릴 낡은 아파트에 이삿짐이 도착한다. 미금 아파트 504호에 새로 입주한 청년의 이름은 용현(김명민 분). 그는 30년 전 504호에서 벌어진 끔찍한 사건을 모른다. 옆집 여자와 눈이 맞은 사내가 부인을 죽이고 갓난아이를 버려둔 채 도망쳤다는 과거사를 지금 알고 있는 사람은 많지 않다. 게다가 504호에선 얼마 전 소설가 광태가 화재로 목숨을 잃었다.

왠지 불길한 이곳에서 용현은 남편에게 구타당하는 여자 선영(장진영 분)을 알게 된다. 510호에 살며 편의점에서 아르바이트를 하는 그녀는 용현이 자신을 도와줄 수 있으리라 직감한다. 그러던 어느 날 용현이 택시영업을 마치고 돌아온 새벽, 선영은 머리에 피를 흘리며 쓰러진 남편 시체를 보여준다. 용현은 선영을 도와 시체를 묻고 둘은 더 가까워진다. 그러나 504호에 깃든 저주는 여기서 멈추지 않는다. 505호에 사는 소설가가 용현에게 말한다. 30년 전 그곳에서 죽은 여인의 시체는 아직 발견되지 않았다고. 등장인물들은 그들도 의식하지 못한 사이 조금씩 광기에 휩싸인다.

Excellent Story of Dislocation Customer Review Rated Bad 10 - 10 out of 10
“Sorum” is more a tragic social horror than the conventional K-horror type and about domestic violence, distorted love and past wrong doings. Certainly the film’s key feature of a dilapidated Silent Hill type apartment block provokes a mix of dark forboding and provocative aestheticism, permeating Mi Gum Apartment’s dark rusted walls. A stark beauty so contrastingly intense, uncomfortable but emotionally invigorating amidst the atmosphere and strange story line. The art direction certainly shows subtle devoid beauty. The shadowy corridors and jaundiced walls also reminded me of the similar decay in “Session 9”, a US movie filmed entirely inside an old disused mental asylum. But “Sorum’s” tragic and chilling plot of a taxi driver and violently abused woman can be an illusive one, of morally broken people amidst supernatural past evils, that so easily could have been an ‘happening’ that lurked behind un-opened doors in the similarly decayed apartments of Silent Hill 2. The sad music, the isolated abused woman and the neglected once orphaned Yong Hyun yearning for mutual love, also make for the most saddening, haunting and disturbing ‘feel’ I’ve had from a movie in ages.

The story centres around taxi driver Yong Hyun (Myung-min Kim) who moves into room 504 of the apartments, but discovers the previous owner had burnt to death in the room. Yong Hyun befriends a melancholic young woman (Jin Young Chang) who’s abused by her violent husband and also lost her young son. Eventually the taxi driver befriends the woman and helps her with her violent circumstances. He also falls in love with her. But by tragic guilt, abandonment and loathing, yields some intense moments near the conclusion.

The two main characters are played out as fractured and dislocated souls. Emotional distorted love is also a key reflection here with a conclusion that’s so brutal, tragic and sad. I was left with a very strange poignant ‘aftertaste’ of emotion when the film concluded, especially returning to the DVD menu screen and the emotional theme music. The emotive impact is such a crucial importance behind the grim story. A brilliant piece of dark Korean theatre here!

Actors Jin-Young Chang and Myung-min Kim perform brilliantly. I was shocked and sorry however to hear about Jin-Young’s illness last year, and I hope profusely she overcomes this awful disease, she’s a remarkable actress. Please get well soon!

NO SORUM BUT KEEPS YOU INTERESTED Customer Review Rated Bad 6 - 6 out of 10
I bought this dvd with much anticipation, but I must say the movie didn't give me much "sorum" if at all. The director does a good job of keeping the audience for the most part, but the ominous mood that he creates never materializes and ultimately disappoints. The storyline has a good premise to be a great horror flick, and the director does a good job with the lighting, and the development of the characters who are peculiar yet believeable. If you are looking for any scary special/sound effects that will make you jump or long haired gui shin, then this is not the movie for you. The dvd does come in a very attractive case with cast interviews, and director's commentary (and a black and white negative strip--i can't tell what image is on it) and a bonus dvd of the director's early attempts at movie-making (not worth watching).....6/10

Eh Customer Review Rated Bad 6 - 6 out of 10
I didn't really like this...I didn't think it was scary, and I was waiting for some payoff after watching the whole time and there really was none. I dunno, just didn't really interest me.

Awesome Customer Review Rated Bad 10 - 10 out of 10
This is one of greatest horror movie I have ever seen. Film maker's direction is quite different than other horror film. There is no ghost or freaky feature on the movie but the surrounding in entire movie scares. You will find it while you watch it. Awesome movie.
