A Godsent Hero or an Unpunished Sinner Put to Question through the Main Trailer of ‘A Killer Paradox’

A Killer Paradox presents the story of an ordinary man, who finds himself killing evildoers, and a detective tenaciously in pursuit of him. The main key art shows the contrast between Lee Tang (Choi Woo-Shik) and Jang Nan-gam (Son Suk-Ku) at a homicide scene. Lee looks horrified, standing under the rain while holding the hammer he used to commit his first murder. Detective Jang examines the murder scene, hinting at the tense events that will soon follow. 

The story begins when Lee Tang, a submissive man who doesn’t normally fight back, accidentally kills a person. Haunted by fear and guilt, Lee is constantly on edge, and the detective, Jang Nan-gam, is suddenly on his tail. The psychological warfare is carried out between the two with Jang keeping a close eye on changes in Lee’s demeanor.

Just as Lee decides to turn himself in, the news that comes on instantly changes the atmosphere: The victim of Lee’s first murder is a malicious serial killer. There’s a noticeable shift in Lee’s character, evolving from a murderer into a condemner. The plot explores themes such as morality, justice, and personal transformation, with Lee’s evolution from a regular guy to a self-proclaimed judge of justice. 

REEL DEAL: Train To Busan REVIEW

Zombies everywhere! Well that is true enough in entertainment all around the world, and we are getting a littled tired of the undead. But comes into the scene a South Korean Film Train to Busan which was made by Next Entertainment World starring Gong Yoo and Kim Su-an.

But what is impressive about the movie is that it premiered during the Canne Film Festival along with the best films in the world. So it built a little intrigue for me if it does really deserve that spot in the festival. Although it was also proven by another thriller movie The Shallows" which also premiered in the festival as well.

So what is the deal with Korean Zombies? With all variations of zombies revealed in many movie, tv series, and comics, they came up with a theme that can ampify the horror. Put zombies on a moving train going south and the country is now in the brink of collapse. So the options and weapons to fight them are real close to nil.

An it was also a success with more than 80 Million US dollars in the box office. Initially I thought it would be similar to Wolrd War Z, but probably with the zombie swarm only but aside from that it delivered its charm like many Korean films.
