2003's, "Memories of Murder:" truly a masterpiece of the horror/crime genre, not surpassed by

any other film, matched by very, very few.
In S. Korea, where the concept of serial murder was heretofore unknown, small town police realize that they have in their midst a monster who targets young women, but only on rainy nights and when a certain sad song is played on the local radio. Song Kang-ho gives an Oscar worthy performance as the lead inspector who is used to handling typical crimes and crime scenes and slowly and painfully realizes the true challenge he faces. Meanwhile, the fastidious, perfectionist lunatic continues to kill, seemingly oblivious to the widening manhunt.
The basic story is true, except that in "real life" the killer claimed 10 victims.
This is a must see. Tarantino voted it one of the twenty best films since '92. I certainly wouldn't argue with that.
Many have praised David Fincher's, "Zodiac," as a genre-bending, raise-the-bar classic. Those holding that opinion have yet to see this film. Superior, in every way, including the performances.
