Three Extremes - Dumplings...

An aging actress wanting to reclaim her youth goes to a woman who makes dumplings that supposedly have regenerative properties. However, they contain a gruesome secret ingredient.

Three... Extremes (Saam gaang yi) is a 2004 international Asian horror film collaboration consisting of three segments by three directors from three countries. It is a sequel to, and follows the concept of Three (2002), this time with more established directors. The three segments are, in the following order:

* Dumplings, directed by Fruit Chan (Hong Kong)
* Cut, directed by Park Chan-wook (South Korea)
* Box, directed by Takashi Miike (Japan)

Fruit Chan later released Dumplings, a 90 minute version of his segment.

What the hell. Just a day or so ago, a friend of mine told me about this movie, and I told her she was sick and she was probably the only person on this planet to have seen the movie. Well done, VideoSift. Well done.

This film is great! Both the original short and the full movie are worth watching - I personally prefer the short. There is also a great deal of *politics and social commentary in the movie about the difference between rural and urban China. The film taps into the fear and awe which characterises the way many rich urban dwellers perceive the rural poor.
