Movie Review: Caution: spoilers ahead
Summary: 5 Stars
I am writing this to try and help those that had trouble figuring out what was going on in this film. (sorry about the technical ineptitude of this article I am just trying to get it over with). The conclusion is as follows: Suyeon is the actual killer, Seungmin is actually her sister/accomplice covering up for her due to the great affection she feels towards her (her affection is also expressed in the flashback sequence in which the "tomboy" seungmin sets fire to the house in an attempt to save suyeon). You might be asking yourself how i can jump to the conclusion that she was actually the kid, well, if you notice during the fire "his" leg is aflame and later in the film we see seungmins leg which has very bad burns in the same place. The reason behind suyeon murdering and mutilating her ex-lovers was more symbolic than literal (no they werent killed because "they knew too much" or anything of that nature). She wanted to enact a sort of revenge against her father for the abuse that she suffered but did so by killing these men that she was amorously involved with who had traits and characteristics that he had (i.e. they were artists, obsessive, overbearing, etc.) The reason why certain body parts of the men werent discarded in refuse bags is because suyeon was trying to create a metaphorical representation of her father with their body parts (shes trying to create a piece of "art" that embodies all that he was). This is verified when we see the body in the tank during the films climax. The body is male and appears to consist of mismatched appendages sewn to a torso, the head is missing but when you put two and two together it is almost impossible not to draw the conclusion that her fathers head was going to be the finishing touch.I will have to admit that everything is not fully explained like why that kid was in room 703 with suyeon and what led up to him falling to his death (the significance in him connecting suyeon to the murders is apparent, but the details behind the situation in the room are never revealed "why was he there, what was he doing hanging out the window") ambiguity plays a big role in this movie and im not neccesarily saying that my perception is right im just relaying the only semi-cohesive conclusion that i could come up with. Tell me something is a thinking mans horror film and i advise that it be watched with an open mind and full attentiveness so you can sift through the evidence and characters motivations and put together the conclusion that you think best fits the film. But be prepared to be frustrated after you watch it the first time as you will probably be tearing at your hair in disbelief at how disjointed the ending seems (there is very little dialogue and almost all the clues to the film are visual)I should probably mention that I hold this film in high regard and recommend it to anyone who wants to watch a film that you will be thinking about days after youve seen it. Just remember that the ending is open to interpretation and it will be awhile until you can connect the dots and even than there are still some plot holes that are never filled in.
