That man is Young-gul, a lonely and rather morbid student in late 1970's South Korea. Narrowly surviving a murder-suicide attempt by a woman wearing a butterfly pendant, he next finds himself besieged by a seemingly insane bookseller who claims he can never die. Even after Young-gul burns the man's body his skeleton comes back to taunt him. As if that weren't enough, the poor student then finds himself the victim of a beautiful thousand year old woman (she looks about 25) who says she is hungry and wants to eat his liver!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe director, Kim Ki-young, was one of Korea's most successful film makers. His 1960 production THE HOUSEMAID is now a recognized classic of world cinema. With this film he goes far beyond the bounds of the real and takes us into a world where anything seems possible, a world where a kind of dream logic rules. Almost impossible to summarize, the film is nevertheless insanely enjoyable. A real one-of-a-kind production that opens our eyes to the limitless possibilities of cinema.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSPECIAL FEATURES:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e4k transfer from film negative.\u003cbr\u003eDigitally restored.\u003cbr\u003eInterview with actress Lee Hwa-si.\u003cbr\u003eInterview with producer Jeong Jin-woo.\u003cbr\u003eInterview with cinematographer Koo Jong-mo.\u003cbr\u003eInterview with Darcy Paquet.\u003cbr\u003eAudio commentary by Kenneth Brorsson and Paul Quinn of the \"What's Korean Cinema?\" Podcast.\u003cbr\u003eMondo Macabro previews.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Orbit DVD","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":40540802678828,"sku":"843276019792U","price":16.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0359\/2201\/8348\/products\/woman-chasing-the-butterfly-of-death-used-used-blu-ray.jpg?v=1786993407","url":"https:\/\/www.orbitdvd.com\/products\/woman-chasing-the-butterfly-of-death-used","provider":"Orbit DVD","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
