Artsploitation Presents Korean Anthology Horror Stories

Artsploitation is set to release the 2012 Korean Horror anthology Horror Stories (Moo-seo-woon I-ya-gi) this Tuesday. The full press release, including the list of the film's directors can be found below. I'm only familiar with a couple of the directors, but Dae-wung Lim's slasher Bloody Reunion is great fun, and Kyu-Dong Min's Memento Mori is pretty excellent, so their inclusion is enough to get me excited.

SIX DIRECTORS FROM KOREA PRESENT FOUR

HORROR STORIES

DEBUTS ON DVD TUESDAY OCT 8, 2013!

SIX KOREAN HORROR DIRECTORS BRING YOU FOUR CREEPY STORIES IN ARTSPLOITATION'S HORROR STORIES, OUT OCT. 8, 2013!

Horror anthologies are creeping up everywhere and the Korean entry Horror Stories raises the bar with four terrifying stories (and a nail-biting wraparound tale), each one chilling enough to be its own feature. If you thought this was going to be a tame collection of teen-friendly “ghost girl” stories – think again. Horror Stories goes right for the jugular with non-stop splatter, intense shocks and riveting suspense. A high school girl is abducted and forced by a psycho to tell him the scariest tales she knows:

• Don’t Answer the Door finds a little brother and sister home alone at night and
  under siege.
• Endless Flight has a serial killer escaping police custody in the middle of an otherwise
  empty flight.
• Secret Recipe serves up a wildly macabre fairy tale about two jealous stepsisters who
  take plastic surgery to nightmarish extremes.
• Ambulance on the Death Zone is a claustrophobic zombie shocker with a paramedic and
  a mother at a standoff over her possibly infected young daughter.

An international genre festival success from Sitges to Fantasia, this is one of the best Korean horror films in years and has been called “one of the scariest Asian horror anthologies of the 21st century.”
