Synopsis
A blend of detective work, horror-movie thrills, and murder investigation, SPIDER FOREST begins with the gruesome death of a man and woman in a cabin deep within the woods. Left there alone to die by their merciless killer, they victims are discovered by Kang (Gam Woo-Sung.) Kang begins to track down the murderer, but gets hit by a car in the process, and the accident sends him to the hospital. Coming close to death himself, Kang awakes to find himself a prime suspect in the killing of the two people he found dead. As a murder investigation ensues, Kang begins to realize that it is precisely what he cannot remember from that fateful evening that holds the key to solving the case and clearing his name.

5.0 out of 5 stars A intricate psychological web, 16 Jun 2007
Films coming out of Korea at the moment are some of the most impressive in the world, and I'd put Spider Forest up there with the very best I have seen.

This is an artistically shot, psychological mystery film, highly cerebral & convoluted, deeply thought provoking. The story revolves around Kang Min, who awakes in a forest at night time and wanders through a forest into a small house, to find a couple of brutally murdered bodies - one of which is his girlfriend. He realises the killer is still on the scene, & Kang Min gives chase but is eventually rendered unconcious by the killer & when he stumbles onto the mian road is run down by a car and ends up in a coma. Suffering somewhat from memory loss, and the prime suspect in the case, Kang does his best to relate his story & his past to a police detective who is on his side. As the investigation continues, it becomes obvious that all is not as it seems, and the film slowly unfolds beautifully its dark secrets.

Part of what made this film good was that the viewer, like Kang is confusedly trying to piece together whats happened, and there are many highly symbolic clues throughout. Any slight supernatural elements to the film are brilliantly understated, meaning the film definately implies the psychological rather than the ghostly. Having said that, it has a unsettling feeling which is remeniscant more of a horror film than a murder mystery, but there arn't many outright scary moments (although the part when Kang becomes aware someone is in the forest watching him is very creepy, especially if you noticed someone we will come accross in the film later)

This isn't a straightforward film. Rather like another Korean film, A Tale of Two Sisters, it may have you thinking about it for many months to come. Highly reccomended.
