A rare teen slasher type of flick from Korea. I saw this one at a special midnight showing shortly after its release there. In accordance with US-made horror/slasher films, the cast is a group of 20-somethings and the most promiscuous are the ones that don’t make it to the final credits

The group who met through an Internet chat room, decide to spend the summer together at a rented beach house to get better acquainted with each other. Apparently though, a former member of the chat group who used the screen name “Sandmanz,” committed suicide when he was ousted from the group and has the others divided over why he chose to take his own life. The killings continue one-by-one until the remaining members of the group believe Sandmanz is actually still alive and in their presence. The prime suspect leads you to believe he’s too obvious to be Sandmanz, but don’t forget, that same premise was used to make you think that Billy Loomis couldn’t have been the killer in the first film of the Scream trilogy.

Kim Min-seon, who’s probably the best known of this cast, is limited to the film’s opening scene, where her character is the killer’s first victim. Lee Eun-ju, who committed suicide in February of 2005, has a very brief, non-speaking role at the end of this film. However, it wasn’t until after her death that I saw her listed as one of the film’s “stars.”
