(2008)
A pimp/ex-detective investigates the disappearance of one of his 'workers' and uncovers a psychotic killer. Aside from revenge, the all-to-familiar trend in most Korean movies (to hit stateside at least) is the ultra-violence that accompany it. This is one of the less accomplished examples of such a theme. While I Saw the Devil caused viewers to question the obsession and necessity of a violent homicide as "justice", The Chaser pretty much plays it's cards one way: chasing a psychopath must end with gallons of blood. It's not a good movie, and I wish I wasn't recommended it by Netflix.
