Monster (2014)

In the gritty underbelly of their neighborhood, the fiery Bok-Soon (KIM Go-Eun), infamous as the 'psycho bitch', runs a humble street stall while dutifully caring for her innocent younger sister. Bok-Soon is no scholar, but her fiery temper, an erupting volcano of uncontrollable fury, is legendary. Their lives, though simple, hold a semblance of peace, a peace that shatters like glass when they collide with the chilling presence of a serial killer, Tae-Soo (LEE Min-Ki). Underneath the charming veneer of Tae-Soo lies a deadly predator, his lifestyle a macabre dance with death. When Bok-Soon's sister unwittingly stumbles upon the truth of his dark deeds, she becomes his next casualty, her demise igniting Bok-Soon's wrath to a blazing inferno. Consumed by a thirst for vengeance, Bok-Soon embarks on a perilous path of retaliation, her every step shadowed by Tae-Soo, who is hell-bent on silencing his only loose end. Their lives become a tense game of cat and mouse, a battle of survival between the hot-blooded avenger and the cold-hearted killer. As Bok-Soon's journey spirals into a vortex of revenge, and Tae-Soo's determination to eliminate her intensifies, they hurtle towards a riveting showdown. As the dust settles, who will remain standing - the fiery Bok-Soon or the icy Tae-Soo? From the raw edges of a Daytona Beach prostitute's life to the chilling existence of a serial killer, this film echoes the haunting narrative of Aileen Wuornos, brought to life by Charlize Theron in her Academy Award-winning performance, and Christina Ricci. 'Monster' is a riveting exploration of the human spirit, resilience, and the terrifying depths one can plunge into when driven by vengeance.
