Suicidal women, Immortal will Men

Noodles, Skeletons, beheaded Immortal men, poisonous suicidal women & human shaped Butterfly....hell of a trip!

I became a fan of Ki-young (Director of "The Housemaid (1960") the day I watched his trippy Folk-Tale horror flick named "Ieoh Island (1977)". That movie unfortunately is utterly neglected by the sub-horror genre lover community as well. The poster itself seems atmospheric and invites you into the " Zone".

I had the same nightmarish expectations when I decided to watch "Woman Chasing the Butterfly of Death/ A woman after a Killer Butterfly (1978)". The unique thing about the screenplay is that only relevant specific/few characters which means it makes you isolated.

I was totally satisfied after watching it past midnight. Definitely deserves a watch if you've liked Kim Ki-young most popular work: The Housemaid (1960).

I Can See The Strings On The Butterfly Of DEATH

Tells the tale of life and death and s···. Woman Chasing The Butterfly Of Death has all the makings of a very strange yet somehow philosophical Korean horror film. Unfortunately, I'm ambivalent with this one. It does have some "interesting" if not cheap ass special effects, some weird moments and an interesting concept but in typical South Korean fashion it's moves slowly and there is too much idle chit chat fillers and it's 25 minutes too f···ing long. It's not a disappointment but it's only worth watching once or twice at the most.

Great one for late at night

Delightfully strange beginning half hour (giggle-inducing, embracing death versus will-to-live horror premise) gives over to a seemingly disconnected, or conveniently connected yet meandering, subplot which somehow becomes the bulk and main thrust of the film. It's all deliriously macabre, languidly mad and dark. A great late night mind tickler.

Why this film is not widely available on home video as a cult classic is anybody's guess but for now it is available in its entirety on YouTube as part of the Korean Film Archive. The English subtitles are there, you just have to turn them on.

A film for those who like exploring outside of the mainstream oddities.
