The first brutal installment of Park Chan-wook’s infamous Vengeance Trilogy, this grisly shocker will linger in your subconscious for weeks after viewing! Desperate measures lead a deaf man and his girlfriend to kidnap a young girl to pay for his sister’s kidney transplant. The situation quickly spirals out of control in a gruesome bloodbath of violence and vengeance. Not for the faint of heart, this gore-soaked epic has a body count and relentlessness few films can match.
Plus! The World Premiere of the short film Vendetta!

In a universe filled with vengeance and romance, a deaf man and a bilingual woman play a sadistic game of cat and mouse.
