Summer's Best Revenge Movie Is 'The Villainess'
Director Jung Byung-gil's film beats "Atomic Blonde" at combining soulful purpose with blood spatter and high-octane action.
You've barely settled into your seat at the South Korean revenge extravaganza The Villainess before arterial blood starts spraying across the screen. Liberace had the Dancing Waters; director Jung Byung-gil has the Dancing Carotids, crimson aerosols accompanied by the sssssss sound that signifies somebody’s tank will soon be empty.
The film’s intricately choreographed! Not only that, but a diminutive adolescent.
