What’s Korean Cinema? 53 – Whispering Corridors

26 June 2021 knetan PODCASTS, What's Korean Cinema?, Whispering Corridors 01:15:19 0 Comments

New wave Korean cinema of the late 90s and onwards logged iconic imagery, settings and atmosphere. Whether through blockbuster action, exploration of vengeance, relationships between North and South Korea at the DMZ but in one of the film industries OG years, at the start of a re-birth we find spooky stuff set in a school for girls. The first in a long running, unconnected series, in this episode we take a look at 1998’s Whispering Corridors. With Kenny B and Paul Quinn of Hangul Celluloid.

Running Times: 
00m 00s – Intro/girl school horror series breakdown/state of Korean cinema in 1998
22m 14s – Box office, awards, notes on the director
38m 00s – Whispering Corridors review.

12 September 2020 knetan PODCASTS, What's Korean Cinema? 01:11:32 0 Comments

Korean cinema could probably do a violence in school exposé with the best of them but here priorities were a little bit different.

With Kenny B and Paul Quinn of Hangul Celluloid.

Running Times: 
00m 00s – Intro/Volcano High production notes, reception, director Kim Tae-kyun’s career
37m 23s – Volcano High review
