Dark Spectrum of Asian Films
I am fascinated with everything that goes bump in the middle of the night, when I ventured into the Korean culture their films captivated me the most, if you thought you couldn't go any deeper to the pit of the ocean, you thought wrong and these films will prove to your thriller, the sensational, phenomenal dark side of Korean drama and movies. # Still Adding

1. Broken
Korean Movie - 2014
In this movie, you are pulled by your heartstrings as you feel the empathy of a grieving father, the pain you experience is enough for you to cry and learn and want to watch it all over again. One of the movies you never forget, everyone has a first and this should be your first to.

2. Cidade Cruel
Korean Drama - 2013, 20 episodes
This was my first Korean drama. This is a very good dark drama to watch if you like crime and undercover and you have not seen the last of me type of dramas.

3. Eclipse
Korean Movie - 2016
Korea is known for not having the best emphasis on gay couples, but they make up for it through bromance, this is one of those where we all know he likes him, but we just can't say it out loud. I loved this dark movie because of the protagonist, he's what I look for in a protagonist and he played his part right all the way to the end, keeping you emotionally tied to him, knowing he was in the wrong but for some reason you wanted him to have happiness.

4. Deranged
Korean Movie - 2012
If you don't know what a Pandemic looks like from the beginning then this is the film for you, for you are in a heartstopping rollercoaster and you won't be coming down for a while mate, so hold on tight don't drink the water and stay alive. Also watch this

5. Diário de Junho
Korean Movie - 2005
This is not for the weak-hearted, this is for the ones who can hold their shit and learn from something instead of taking it as it is. As someone who has advocated for bullying to stop all my life, this movie shows who how powerful the bystander is, for most they are nonexistent, just there to watch and leave again but this movie proves otherwise, the bystander can be the one with the knife with much more blame than the person who stabbed you in the back with it.

6. Não chore, mamãe
Korean Movie - 2012
Similar to the movie broken, this deals with a mothers pov and how she seeks revenge on the boys and a society that still has yet to grasp the understanding of a victim and contributions.
This is a heart puller and its extremely hard to watch a lot but indeed one watch will have u with a waterfall in the end.

The Boogey underneath our bed or hiding in our closet has come to life in this heart-stopping, adrenaline pushing movie. You are on the edge even till the very end.

8. Duelo
Korean Drama - 2017, 16 episodes
Everyone is a victim of some sort, it all had to start somewhere, this show takes on a plot like " My sister's keeper," the American film, but its Korean, and in Korea there is always a dark twist and they did it right, not only are you angry, crying and happy but hurt still. Great movie to watch you guys

9. Fatal Intuition
Korean Movie - 2015
Similar to plots of "Broken," and "Don't Cry, Mommy" this is another movie where the brother has everything on his shoulders and now by himself after the blunt force death of his sister at the hands of a killer, too close too home. You can never really trust your neighbors, coworkers, or friends. No one can be trusted in this thriller.

10. Gangnam 1970
Korean Movie - 2015
