Director Kim Jee Woon follows The Good, The Bad, The Weird with the highly anticipated, ultra-violent revenge thriller I Saw the Devil starring two of Koreas top actors. Lee Byung Hun, who has headlined Kims last three films, faces off against award-winning actor Choi Min Sik, who starred in Kims first film The Quiet Family back in 1998. Relentlessly treading on the thin line between man & monster, I Saw the Devil takes the audience to dark & disturbing places in his graphic depiction of the intense, gory battle that unfolds between an unhinged murderer & a man who becomes his match in his raging quest for revenge.
The police have been hunting psychopathic serial killer Kyung Chul (Choi Min Sik) for a long time, but he slips away each time, leaving behind him a gruesome trail of blood. He has taken the lives of many in the cruelest possible ways, & his latest victim is the fiancee of government agent Soo Hyun (Lee Byung Hun). Soo Hyun vows to avenge her death at all costs, but to catch the devil, he too must become a devil.
