FANTASIA FEST |
WRITER/DIRECTOR Park Hoon-jung
I thoroughly enjoyed this movie that mixes the supernatural with science fiction and action with a pinch of comedy. The beginning is a bit jumbled for me since I did not see the first film. In the beginning I got that a secret organization made clones of special children with superpowers and that a special police force was trying to take them down.
The action is so hot! There are some Crouching tiger. Hidden dragon like fight scenes but modernized to appeal to savvy Gen Z. The looks of the young witches is impeccable.
The cinematography comes to life during the battles with some choreographies that caught me totally by surprise. That is what I enjoy most, when a move I had never seen pops up on the screen.
There is a lot of blood and slicing and dicing in this fast paced movie starring Shin Si-ah as the girl, Kim Da-mi, who won Fantasia's Best Actress Award in 2018 for The Witch: Part 1. The Subversion, as Goo Ja-yoon and Jo Min-su as Dr. Baek.
The screening will be on Friday July 29th at 9:45 pm. DETAILS
A mom and her two daughters live in a wonderful but isolated old house. There is something odd going on there and the children cannot walk past the limits of the house grounds for fear of facing the wrath of the witch of the lake.
An elegant psychological drama unfolds as the eldest daughter starts to question the premise of their isolation and wants to confront the witch.
The viewing in Fantasia is past but keep your eyes open for this nice classy short film.
Stay tuned...

The story is about an Outsider, Teacher, who finds a little girl, Shiva, who has survived an encounter with the shadowy Outsiders. With great tenderness he helps her while at the same time being mindful not to touch her, for if he did, she would die.
Nagabe often draws characters with the head of a bird. It gives them a strange appeal and air of absolute mystery. I am drawn to Teacher because of his innate elegance and magnificent bird head with antlers. It is hard to categorize his look. A thoroughly delightful experience.
This stop-motion animated feature traces the evolution of an entity looking for incarnation by devouring the residues of a time long ago and bursting forth into a new shape every time. The movie capitalizes on ASMR sounds that lull us into an hypnotic like acquiescence to the ceaseless motion of this spirit.
You can only wonder at the hours of work done to create such an elaborate stop-motion film.
I am currently reviewing several films but you must visit the web site to explore the films being presented this year: FANTASIA FESTIVAL 2022
Stay tuned...

Après un long confinement c'est exaltant de voir revivre la ville qui s'est vue privilégiée d'une température idéale pour nos magnifiques festivals! Cette année, Montréal Complètement Cirque avec la participation d' Ivanhoé Cambridge nous présentent 3 GÉANTS , 3 installations gigantesques qui servent d'arrière plan à trois compagnies de cirque Montréalaises: Les 7 doigts, Cirque Éloize et Machine de Cirque: qui ont chacune réaliser des spectacles gratuits dans trois espaces ouverts accessibles à tous et gratuits.
J'ai vu deux spectacles déjà, celui des 7 doigts et du Cirque Éloize.
Les 7 doigts proposent une histoire de construction. Des ouvriers s'unissent autour du géant et
Le Cirque Éloize évoque pour moi des scènes de cabarets loufoques où tout est possible. Le metteur en scène, Jean-Guy Legault, veut nous faire vivre l'émergence de la vie du Fleuve Saint-Laurent avec une représentation éclaboussante de la présence de l'eau comme élément du décor. Une chanteuse excentrique avec une voix puissante raconte les histoires jouer par les artistes de cirque. J'ai beaucoup aimé ce cirque aux couleurs chaudes avec des pointes d'humour, de la danse et des costumes flamboyants!
Ne manquez pas cette belle occasion de passer une belle soirée dehors avec vos enfants, ou sans, gratuitement, sous le beau ciel de Montréal jusqu'au 17 juillet 2022.
AMUSEZ-VOUS BIEN!!!
