Stoker

Stoker is the most twisted, subverted, outrageous adaptation of Hamlet (with juxtaposed elements of Macbeth as well) you'll ever see. The eeriness and perversity of the deeply menacing sinisterness, cocooned in a sensuous and provocative atmosphere of disquieting tension, brings out a more evolved phase of Park Chan Wook's filmmaking. The violence is more internal, stripped of the spectacular grandiosity, deliberately restrained to fit into the lyricism of the breathtakingly stylized imagery and visually stunning frames. Compelling fetishization of the psycho-sexual broodings makes the film a poetry of violence rather than a ritual of the obviousness of this genre.
