aka Blood Rain


IMDB seems to annoyingly neglect these translated titles lately for those who can't read Korean..

I foud it just by searching for:

"Blood rain imdb"

It gets to be the very first entrance that is displayed:

http://www.google.com/search?client=opera&rls=en&q=imdb+blood+rain&sourceid=opera&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8

And that's what happens with a lot of movies whose title is kept original wich I like a lot.

It works fine with opera and google.


But another thing is true, Hyeol-ui nu (2005) didn't get but 53 votes until today, and I guess it would have more, was the title translated, but if you don't know the original title should you be entitled to vote ?

they just ignore AKA titles in general, they weren't updated for years... according to the help - processing times - imdb is now updating AKA titles that have been submitted in 2004! thats a pretty big lag while these are one of the most important data to find a movie. BTW, this has another aka title Blood Tears.

I caught this movie at the Seattle International Film Festival a few weeks ago. It was the last of two showings... Guess what? With ten minutes or so left in the film, it broke and burned!! They could not fix it and gave us passes to another movie. I tried to find someone who had seen it or new the ending... specifically who did it?... No luck. Could someone tell me what happened, or direct me to the answer? Up to the breaking of the film, it was very intense and well done. Thanks.

Everything pointed to the young man who had been "adopted" by Kang, but it turns out that he was in fact the last informer. He turned against his master because at one time he had saved the master's daughter from drowning but Kang thought he had done something inapropriate with her.

The killer was the nobleman's son, who was the one who had saved Kang's daughter. The detective figures it out and kills him just in time to prevent him from tearing the young man's limbs off his body. But the villagers still believe that Kang's ghost is angry, so they drag the young man from custody and kill him.

Now it gets a little strange: it starts to rain red, so the villagers believe that the ghost is still there and is still angry and they go and kill the nobleman to appease him.



I was just a child then...
Now I'm only a man.

Really? I was under the impression that the nobleman hung himself before they could get there.

reply

(the villagers wanted blood) but well he did hang himself before.

as mentioned, I don't get the blood rain at the end and why the detective let go of the hankerchief

reply

Well, the ghost had been still there and made the villagers kill themselves as a punishment and revenge, for they all had been informers, as the shaman mentioned and guilty...

There isn't really a meaning in the last scenen when the detective let go of the hankerchief to the sea. The case is closded, so why keep it...?

Thanks everyone!
