This is a coming of age storyline that you've seen in one form or another for decades. It takes a truly unique voice to make yet another one worth watching.

It’s not bad or unwatchable but despite the amplitude of the spectacle, the end result is underwhelming.

It's a feast for the eyes. But what really makes this dramedy work is the acting.

I don't know how people rated this movie so high where as there are plenty of Korean Movies that are rated very low. For instance "New World (2013)" is 7.6.Any how, since perspective matters, let's just talk about this movie.This movie started moderately but the first 10-20 minutes were useless and petty reasons for Hwang Geum-hee (starred as Hae-won) to visit her village after all those years. Director could have given a strong plot like Hae-won visited her village because she saw someone getting killed or raped which reminded her of her childhood village friend Seo Young-hee (starred as Kim-Bok-nam) who was raped in her early age also. This could give a strong reason for Hae-won to visit her village. It even showed at one point that Hae-won saw her friend Kim-Bok-nam getting raped, slightly teased about the situation, so there were plenty of opportunities to use that plot as plot development. Nudity was completely unnecessary here. Few scenes didn't even make any sense as why it was so important to show blow- job or Kim-Bok's brother in law forcefully have sex with her; naked; whenever her husband was not near. Simple acting and audio based cinematography could have done that even more dramatically here.The way Hwang Geum-hee (starred as Hae-won) acted in this movie, it really puts me on serious level of doubt whether she has really stood in front of a camera or not. Her acting was so flat, so terrible and so dull, I even wanted to skip her parts. But since lot of movie data base gave this movie high ratings, I still kept watching the movie, hoping for something twisted plot.Seo Young-hee (starred as Kim-Bok-nam) acted gorgeously. Her level of acting puts Hwang Geum-hee on a shameful slum as they had to act alongside each other in lot of scenes. The gap of acting skills between these two actress were so visible that at some point I thought the caster who selected Hwang Geum-hee for the "Hae-won" role should check him/herself for mental treatment. You can't put a gem alongside a dirty pebble.In all interviews, the directors said this movie is psychological horror and even renowned database like AsianWIKI said the same thing. This movie is nowhere near psychological horror. Yes there were unstable characters in this movie but this movie does not put you on any sort of mental state; of disturbance. It's just some crime happening in a small village. There's no twist, there's no suspense and there's no dramatic wave of fear.Still this movie had chances to make it more interesting as Kim-Bok-nam spent her whole life reading-dreaming about Seoul lifestyle and observed how Hae-Won acts as modern city girl. I literally cried how the director missed the chances of making this movie a good psychological horror is when Hae-Won left the village alone on a boat, barely escaping from the murderous intent of Kim-Bok-nam, they could easily showed that the woman who reach Seoul was not Hae-Won but Kim-Bok-Nam. An identity theft and a new life replacing Hae-Won's life definitely could have given this movie a new life but no, they gave a Cheesy 2 bucks hollywood type story or those stupid Indian action films. God knows how Kim-Bok-Nam found police station and why there was only one police in the station, how she found a sledge hammer, how she entered the station from the front door with that sledge hammer and not getting shot (the police had a gun for himself, he shots her later) and why Hae-Won was cuffed in the station. The ending was so cheesy that all those efforts from the crews-members went wasteland of drainage.Final verdict, director seemed confused. He failed miserably on story focus section. It was utterly absurd that Hae-Won lied to Police regarding Kim-Bok-Nam's daughter's death, who was her childhood best friend, shared everything with each other and then later in the end told police the truth regarding a girl's beat-down that had occurred in front of her, for a completely unknown girl, she told the truth but could not tell the truth for her childhood best friend. This movie was ethically b00lschit and failed to show any sort of ethics but tried intensely. It is hard to believe, these directors, casters, producers gets paid for their job and they can't do it properly. I give this movie a solid 4. It's an overrated piece of trash. It is really shameful to see this movie on per with "No Mercy (2010) - 7.4" , "Confession of Murder (2012) - 7.1" , "The Yellow Sea (2010) - 7.4" and many more on rating base. I guess it was a great hand trick of *cough*cough*cough*FAKE RATINGS*cough*cough*cough*

After self-absorbed Seoul bank worker Hae-won (Seong-won Ji) is ordered to take some time off work due to stress, she decides to visit the remote island of Moo-do, where she spent time as a child with her grandfather. There, she rekindles her friendship with her childhood friend Kim Bok-nam (Yeong-hie Seo), but discovers that the rest of the islanders treat the woman like a slave, abusing her mentally, physically and sexually. Hae-won's apathy regarding the situation ultimately leads to tragedy…Korean revenge drama Bedevilled requires much patience from the viewer, the story building steadily and slowly, the abuse and degradation Bok-nam endures, not just from her husband but also the other women on the island, very gradually pushing her closer and closer to the edge of sanity. It's not a question of whether she will crack, but when, so hang on in there: when she finally flips (after the death of her daughter at the hands of her husband), revenge has never been sweeter, Bok-nam going to town with a sharp farming implement, hacking and slashing her way through all those who have tormented her.Brooding direction from Cheol-soo Jang, marvellous performances all round, and stunning cinematography all go to make this a very satisfying experience, but best of all is the visceral violence that is dished out by the severely miffed Bok-nam to her deserving victims, all that practice with the sickle digging up potatoes not going to waste.

BEDEVILLED is one of those harshly realistic dramatic movies that makes an in-your-face statement that leaves you squirming uncomfortably in your seat, while at the same time being a picture-perfect example of how to make a movie. I can't recall a single filmmaking flaw. The location(s) and the cinematography are stunning, as are the performances. The direction is as solid as the material. It's uncomfortably voyeuristic, but it's also the kind of Timely motion picture that every mental health care provider and therapist in the world should recommend to their patients. There are lessons to be learned here. (Here in the U.$., the solution to the problem of mental health care has been to simply INCARCERATE the mentally ill; an Age Old but apparently still preferable method of dealing with a problem most bureaucracies don't want to be bothered wit...) With the instances of rape in the U.$. Military hovering around the 30,000 mark, even the Armed Forces might benefit from a screening or two...

There is no clue in the beginning about what is to come. One first suspects that Hae-won (Ji Seong-won) is going to be a victim as she witnesses an attempted murder. The stress of that causes problems at work, so she is forced to take a vacation.She heads to the island where she used to live with her friend Bok-nam(Seo Yeong-hee). Bok-nam's live is a living hell. Her husband beats her and takes all the money she earns to use on prostitutes, her brother-in-law rapes her repeatedly, and the old island women use her as a slave. She wants desperately to leave with her daughter before she is subjected to the same abuse.Things go from bad to worse before everything gets extremely bloody.
