Project Wolf Hunting begins with a mass return of Korean criminals captured in the Philippines. As they’re being led through Seoul airport somebody with a grudge against one of them detonates a suicide bomb killing himself, his target, and everyone else in the vicinity. To avoid a repeat of this, the next group is to be transported on the Frontier Titan, a specially fitted out cargo ship and delivered to a pier in Busan harbour to which the public doesn’t have access. I guess simply flying them into a military base never crossed anyone’s mind.
The Frontier Titan leaves Manilla with forty-seven criminals, twenty guards, two medics, and the ship’s crew. At least that’s what they think they’re leaving with because...

Tagline: "Vengeance Brings the Dead to Life." Asian cinema continues to dazzle. The latest from Korea is Rv: Resurrected Victims. The film plays out like a crime thriller, set in a horror world. In the film, murder victims return from the dead, to take revenge on their killers. Well Go USA Entertainment will release this terrifying title this October.

Some films are based on fact. Some quite clearly aren't. Mr Go tells the story of the first gorilla to play baseball in the Korean baseball league. Unsurprisingly, this one falls into the latter category. Maybe if they'd gone with Japan, but not Korea. That would be insane. Directed by Yong-hwa Kim (200 Pounds Beauty), Mr Go is based on Huh Young-man's 1984 comic, The 7th Team, which depicts the relationship between the all-swinging gorilla and his 15-year-old female manager. Mr Go was the first South Korean film to be shot - for better or for worse - in full 3D, and is a co-production between South Korea and China. A bonkers concept then, but what about the execution? When Weiwei's (Jiao Xu) grandfather died in the Great Sichuan Earthquake, he left behind an insurmountable debt. Things get worse for Weiwei when a loan shark threatens to sell Ling Ling and...
