RARE

Korea2018 16min World Premiere

Synopsis

A whole new world where people eat zombie meat. One day, a loyal customer to Chun-bae, a zombie hunter and a butcher, suggests to hunt homeless “people” as a preemptive measure to possible shortage on supply of zombie meat. A dystopian perspective on twisted human nature.

Program Note

RARE is not only a zombie chase flick, but a highly entertaining film set in ‘a sushi made of zombie’ restaurant. Sci-fi characters with strong personalities are done well, Korean style. The cinematography and editing effectively deliver the feel of this genre. (CHANG Hyun-sang)
