SCI-FI, FANTASY & HORROR FILMS

THREE EXTREMES

An anthology of short films from three of Asia’s most compelling directors - Fruit Chan, Park Chan-Wook, and Takashi Miike

A beautiful female novelist, still guilt-ridden over the childhood death of her twin sister, receives a mysterious invitation to meet at the site of her sister’s demise…

A retired actress longing to retain her beauty seeks the rejuvenating effects of a doctor’s “special” dumplings, only to discover they contain one horrifying ingredient…

A film director is abducted by a vengeful stranger and forced to make an impossible choice that will change his life forever…

Exploring the outer limits of the macabre, Lions Gate Films’ THREE … EXTREMES is a bracing triptych of horror stories uniting three of East Asia’s most compelling directors – Japanese cult figure Takashi Miike, Hong Kong’s Fruit Chan, and Korea’s award-winning PARK Chan-Wook. Using distinctive cinematic styles that span dream-like minimalism, savage comedy and baroque horror, these cutting-edge directors penetrate the dark heart of desire, examining the ghastly urges that transform ordinary people into monsters. Stylish, twisted and laced with haunting imagery, THREE … EXTREMES breaks the bounds of genre cinema, confirming the visionary talent of three master directors.

Japan Segment – “Box”

Directed by MIIKE TAKASHI
Cast Kyoko Hasegawa & Atsuro Watabe

Synopsis
Kyoko is a successful novelist and a renowned beauty, yet she confines herself to a solitary life behind a veil of secrecy. She has ambivalent feelings towards her editor who is obviously infatuated with her. Kyoko, however, is not in a position to open her heart to her editor... or to anyone.

It all began with a traumatic experience in her childhood that has remained unspoken. At the tender age of ten, Kyoko accidentally caused her twin sister Shoko -- a rival for the affection of their surrogate father Hikita -- to be burned to death. Stricken by grief, Hikita vanished shortly afterwards. Kyoko has been haunted by the memory of her twin since, and she has devoted her life to the search for Hikita whom her editor coincidentally resembles. Kyoko is uncontrollably attracted to him and at the same time terrorized by it – is there something beyond pure coincidence?

One day, Kyoko finds a bouquet of flowers on her desk accompanied by an invitation card. The card indicates only the venue and the time of a meeting -- the place is where her sister died...

MIIKE TAKASHI
Born in 1960, Takashi Miike represents the finest if not the most avant-garde of the contemporary Japanese cinema. A unique filmmaker by any definition, Miike has cultivated a wide ranging taste that encompasses star vehicles, TV soaps, Yakuza genre pictures and even the occasional musical. He started out as an assistant director for television then broke into directing in the early 90s making low-budget action flicks for the V-Cinema, amongst which, the 1995 production “Shinjuku Triad Society” was his first theatrically released film. His international breakthrough came with 'Audition' in 1999 which stirred up an ever expanding cult following in the West. Notorious for his explicit and taboo representations of violence and sex, Miike also possesses an unsurpassed energy that was sufficient for him to create more than 60 films in his 13 years of career as a director. Ranked by Time magazine recently as one of the top ten hottest young directors to watch in the world, Miike had a retrospective featured by the Cannes Film Festival in 2003.

Director’s Statement
When I first heard of three different directors committing to one omnibus film, I immediately related it to making experimental films in film school. The best part is that we were more relaxed in the process whereas the film students would be quite desperate. I was so excited when I learnt the names of the other two directors -- Chan and Park are both talented and powerful. Not only did their names give me a relief, their involvement also convinced me that the audiences would forgive me for making a bizarre film given the other two prominent short films side by side.

I can’t explain why, but all I had in mind was to make a calm, quiet film -- a film so quiet that it would drive you mad. We looked for a story that would fit our purpose, but could not find any. That’s why we made an original script this time. “Box” is different in a sense that it does not follow an “ideal” narrative structure. The film begins with maximum tension right away and the same tension lasts throughout the entire film.

I omitted talkative characters centering on only the introverted novelist, her quiet editor and a pair of dancing twins. To keep out the crowds and the noise they made, I shot many scenes with entire screen full of snowfall. The effect was superb. It was as if the story itself had frozen and no one could know what’s happening next -- a search for the future but ending up in despair…and the film was completed. Now it is up to the audience to “feel” it. I hope everyone will use all their senses -- feel and enjoy the terror in the “Box”.

Kyoko Hasegawa
Kyoko Hasegawa started her career as a commercial model before moving into television in 2000. Her major breakthrough came last year with her mesmerizing performance in Fuji TV’s drama series “My Madonna” which took the nation by storm and secured her idol status. Already featured in over ten commercial campaigns this year, Hasegawa is widely considered by the media as the most likely candidate to succeed to the throne of Japan’s queen of TV drama.


This is Kyoko Hasegawa’s first time in a feature film, and absolutely her first time to star in one. I was so amazed by her performance. She was spectacular in the snow, and I was glad to see that it all came out in the picture. She was very avid in a good sense, and was meant to be an actress. --Takashi Miike

Korea Segment – “Cut”

Written and Directed by PARK Chan-Wook
Cast LEE Byung-Hun, LIM Won-Hee & GANG Hye-Jung

Synopsis
RYU Ji-Ho is a successful film director who has earned wide and solid respect from audiences and critics alike. Wealthy, respected, talented, happily-married, good-looking and also kind in nature -- everything about Ryu is the definition of Mr. Perfect… that is, until he returns home one day after finishing a shoot to encounter a complete stranger in his living room.

The stranger is a male extra whom Ryu had never paid attention to. Probably no one else ever did either. Madly jealous of the director’s good fortune, the man is there to destroy. He has brought along a child and has taken Ryu’s pianist wife as a hostage. He offers Ryu two choices, to kill the child or to watch his wife’s fingers being cut off -- one after another. Either way, Ryu’s life will never be the same again. Tormented by the dilemma, the people in the house cannot but fall prey to the madman’s monstrosity -- which gradually proves itself to be contagious.

PARK Chan-Wook
Born in 1963, Park graduated from from Sugang University with a degree in philosophy. An avid lover of film and art, Park began his career as a movie critic before becoming an assistant director in 1988 and then making his directorial debut in 1992 with “The Moon is… the Sun’s Dream”. His fame took off in 2000 with his mystery thriller “JSA: Joint Security Area” which became an instant pan-Asia hit and the then highest-grossing film ever in Korea. Winner of this year’s Grand Prix at Cannes with “Old Boy”, Park is among the very few in Asia who have the talent and charisma to merge critical acclaim with commercial success.

 

PARK Chan-Wook: Director’s Statement
Most of my films purport to carry the theme of vengeance -- they are actually stories about the transferring of people’s guilty conscience; about people who place the blame for their actions on others because they refuse to take on the blame themselves. “Cut” in this case bears the same core but with a variation -- it deals with the situation of a particular dilemma. In my opinion, choice and dilemma are extremely dramatic subject matter. Similar to my previous work “Old Boy”, the protagonist in “Cut” is also forced by the villain to make an irreversible choice. If making a choice means having to deny everything that one has believed in, no one is ever safe from his or her own self. Life is an endless process of making choices. Through “Cut” I want to show that “choice” itself can be the most frightening horror that awaits us in the course of our daily lives.

Qing uses a lot of connections to get to the mysterious chef, Mei to obtain her famous specialty dumplings. Qing is no gourmet but simply dying to recover her youth and beauty. At stake is her new “career” as a housewife of the rich. Mei’s dumplings claim to deliver the goods. Mei, a former gynecologist, developed a secret recipe for rejuvenation which has allowed her to bid farewell to her career as an abortionist. Now Mei only serves desperate rich women like Qing.

Miriam Yeung
Miriam Chin-Wah Yeung is one of the most popular and versatile female artists in Hong Kong. Formerly a registered nurse, Yeung broke into the entertainment industry accidentally in 1995 while accompanying a friend to the audition of a singing contest. Her friend was disqualified on the spot but Yeung proceeded to the final winning third place and taking six Best New Female Vocalist Awards in the following year. Having put out 8 albums and winning more than 40 awards for her singing to date -- -- Yeung has also found the time to perform in a stage musical, five primetime television drama series and eleven movies, not to mention her sold-out concerts, her TV commercials and numerous charity tasks including the UN Ambassador for AIDS awareness for the years 2000 and 2002.
The combination of Yeung’s girl next-door appeal and her off-beat humor has won her huge support from a wide range of fans making Yeung a star. Since her box office success in a local romantic comedy “Love Undercover” in 2002, a Yeung-cast feature has become a standard requirement in every one of Hong Kong’s box-office seasons. Being accountable for a box-office total of 87 million Hong Kong Dollars in the year 2003 alone (with 3 Top-ten Grossing Chinese features), Yeung is determined to go beyond the comedy genre under the direction of acclaimed director Fruit Chan in his horror film “Three...Extremes: Dumplings”.
