Witch: The Subversion (Korean)
#3
The Witch Part 2: The Other One

This sequel is full of surprises. A continuation of the Witch world where young girls are genetically modified killing machines. But this installment moves into the extreme superpower realm, to good effect. There's plenty of sanguineousness, everything is spattered crimson. But the first major fight that reveals these superpowers is launches this deep into hyperactive superhero fights, and gory ones at that. i totally laughed when that reveal emerged like 'well okay, we're going there.' The choreo is fun, choppy and ultraviolent, in sharp contrast to some of the more idyllic or comic scenes. There's a lot fo gear changes here, and they steadily escalate. Note that a keen ear is helpful to tell when characters are speaking Korean and Mandarin...and English. The English segments started out dumb and campy, but then that campiness reached a satisfying dollop, like the gravy in an absurd K-flick. 

I'm for part three, whenever it comes. It is set up nicely by a post credit scene.

You will be amused.

Both installments of The Witch are D00M recommended. Watch them in order however. Both are on Hoopla.
