Synopsis

A business man is about to receive a dental treatment from a mysterious doctor. At first they seem comfortable, sharing small talk, until the doctor starts to lose his cool. The patient drifts into unconsciousness, not knowing what is happening to him. The horrifying nature of the ?reatment?is revealed only when the never-ending session gets interrupted by an outsider. Based on a story, this short horror film creates an unbearable atmosphere where the audience is forced to guess the extent of the atrocity committed by the demented doctor. The eerie sound of flesh being torn and bones broken instills more fear into one than witnessing the act itself in graphic detail. Superb acting and notable prosthetics effects both contributed to this high quality thriller from Frazer Lee. (KIM Eui-Chan)
