Kim Jee-woons kimchi western THE GOOD, THE BAD, THE WEIRD (2008) presented in this Arrow Video boxset with both the Korean cut of the film and the International cut.
ONE MAP. THREE VILLAINS. WINNER TAKES ALL.
Genre maestro Kim Jee-woon (A Tale of Two Sisters) set his sights on new frontiers and spiced them up with his rollicking kimchi western The Good, the Bad, the Weird starring three huge Korean stars, Song Kang-ho, Lee Byung-hun and Jung Woo-sung.
Set in 1930s Manchuria, three gun-toting Koreans converge on a train with different objectives but after an explosive altercation they leave it with the same goal: track down a map leading to an unfathomable treasure.
The ‘Good’ is bounty hunter Park Do-won (Jung Woo-sung, 12.12: The Day), who is chasing down the ‘Bad’, the ruthless bandit Park Chang-yi (Lee Byung-hun, A Bittersweet Life), rumoured to be the notorious ‘Finger Cutter’.
Meanwhile, wily thief Yoon Tae-goo (Song Kang-ho, Parasite), the ‘Weird’, is on the hunt for anything he can get his hands on. Backs are stabbed, fingers are cut, and many bullets fly as this dangerous trio blast their way through the desert in search of untold riches.
This glorious resurrection of this Korean action film was the biggest and most ambitious production ever undertaken in Korea. From a stunning newly restored 4K master, experience this spicy slice of wild west mayhem as you’ve never seen it before.
