Synopsis by Mark Deming
The Devil, you say! Seung-heui (Chu Sang-mi) is a beautiful female auto mechanic who was born in the midst of a mass suicide by a cult of Satanists -- which might explain why she often has bad dreams. Further enlightenment of her difficulty with sleep is provided by Father Park (Ahn Sung-ki) and Jun-hu (Oh Hyeon-chul). Their research into spiritual and paranormal matters has led them to believe Satan himself wants Seung-heui to be the mother of his child -- and he doesn't like to take no for an answer. This fast-paced supernatural thriller, loaded with special effects, was a major success in South Korea.
