Program Note

Alison, who has an F cup bra size, feels the weight of her unusually big breasts and is terrified by the way men look at her, so she goes to a cosmetic clinic with her disapproving mother and reluctant boyfriend Michael. Just before she gets her dream breast reduction to cup size B, she has to escape from zombies created through the clinic’s clandestine experiments.

Set in a cosmetic clinic, where the body damage is usually most welcomed, Yummy follows standard route of classic comic zombie splatter movies: a feast of intestines fill the screen like exploding firecrackers, with severed body parts flying around at pace, compounding the satisfaction expected of a typical splatter movie. Contrary to the title, watching Yummy on a full stomach is not such a good idea; there’s plenty of vomitus is on screen, so it’ll hard to avoid chucking up too! (Jin Park)
