We Didn’t See The Devil.

Well, we didn’t see it at the festival anyways as it was screened on the final day when we were both too hung over and too pushed for time before our flights home.

However, as I SAW THE DEVIL brought together two of our favourite Korean actor’s, Byung Hun-lee and Choi Min-sik, we were not to be denied and have since managed to catch the pair at their bloody best in this unflinching revenge thriller from Kim Ji-woon.

Head over to Twitch for an interview between Diva Velez and the film’s director.

Is it really only three more sleeps until the festival kicks off? Well, before I get back to packing my underwear I thought it worth mentioning that the organisers have announced the recipients of this year’s honorary awards and when they’ll be bagging them. Queue drum roll…….
