Synopsis
I SAW THE DEVIL is a tale of murder and revenge from Korean genre
master Kim Jee-woon (THE GOOD, THE BAD, THE WEIRD; A TALE OF TWO
SISTERS). Shockingly violent, OLDBOY’s Choi Min-sik plays Kyung-chul,
a dangerous psychopath who kills for pleasure. A man of pure evil,
he has committed horrifying and senselessly cruel serial murders on
defenceless victims, successfully eluding capture by the police.
On a freezing, snowy night, he preys on his latest victim, the
beautiful Ju-yeon, daughter of a retired police chief and pregnant
fiancée of elite special agent Soo-hyun (THE GOOD, THE BAD, THE
WEIRD’S Lee Byung-hyun). Gripped with revenge, Soo-hyun embarks on
a manhunt to track down the murderer, and when he finds Kyung-chul,
turning him in to the authorities is the last thing on his mind. As
a game of cat and mouse ensues, the lines between good and evil
blur.
Director Kim Jee-woon accomplishes to push the concept of revenge to
its most extremes.
