"Acacia" 5/10
This might be the saddest horror movie iīve ever seen.
Summary taken from IMDB:
"Acacia" stars Hye-jin Shim and Jin-guen Kim as a married couple unable to conceive a child.The husband is a doctor and the wife spends her time judging student art and knitting.Things change when the couple adopts six year old Jin-seong,a mysterious boy obsessed with drawing pictures of an acacia tree that he believes is the reincarnation of his dead mother.Soon the wife becomes pregnant and Jin-seong becomes more unhappy.On one rainy night he disappears mysteriously..."
- End of summary.
From the moment i saw the adopted boy i instantly felt sorry for him. He looked both cute and sad at the same time and i have a soft spot for excentric outsiders.
The whole time, i thought that the "Mom" acted oddly and unnaturally distant towards both her adopted child and later her own baby. I donīt know if thatīs just the way korean moms are when it comes to their children, or maybe she was just a bad actor?
But did NO ONE think about the newborn baby in the end??:confused: :eek: :confused: :eek:
