In the keelwater of an cms steamturbine cargo ship, where the less costliest of priceless murderers and other murderers of the korean society are granted a showboat worthy trip back to good ol'mum korea from the filipensians.
Its an A-star casted southkorean blood, gore and brains wrung out horror slasher where the graphic level of violence, and stupid plot and script, where acting improvisation is totally forbidden, and at some points you see the flabbergasted shock of awe in the seasoned actors faces, mine too by the way whatever grumpy and c-old i might be this was overkill en masse.
Although this, the blood and gore department and the cleanup personell whos crystal clear tiedying up between retakes and some of the special effects must be acclaimed for as special. Its not a film for everyone and will become a classic for the''in the closet'' horror viewers.

This has to be one of the bloodiest Asian movies that I have seen in recent times. If you're not a fan of R-Rated movies, definitely not recommended for you. But a must watch for R-Rated fans.
The concept isn't unique and feels like a blend of different movies came together. The narration isn't tight as well, but the violence/survival theme keeps you glued for most part. But even with all that blood, the action kind of gets boring in the end, as the action choreography/camera captures doesn't offer anything new.
As an action/sci-fi/horror fan, I did like the movie, but it does feel a little overwhelming on the gore/violence/blood.
PS:There are a couple of twists in the end which sets up a nice base for part 2.

Project Wolf Hunting, originally known as Neugdaesanyang, is one of the most brutal movies I have ever watched in my life. This South Korean film of two hours and two minutes is best described as gory action thriller. The story revolves around a group of dangerous criminals of South Korean origin who are extradited from the Philippines to South Korea on a cargo ship.
This film convinces on numerous levels. First of all, the isolated location of a cargo ship gives this movie a claustrophobic, filthy and tense atmosphere. Up next, this movie impresses with vivid pace that is gradually getting more intense towards the finale. The flashbacks going all the way back to the horrors of the Second World War offer some great background information and introduce viewers to a different location.
On the negative side, the brutal scenes in this film are heavily exaggerated. Two and a half tons of blood were used to portray roughly two dozen injured or murdered characters. This fact alone should give you a very good idea of how relentless this movie is. The story is paper-thin as the creators of this movie have just been looking for a weak excuse to justify the violent bloodshed. Whenever a character starts to develop something resembling depth and sympathy, then it isn't long before her or his untimely demise.
At the end of the day, Project Wolf Hunting is an entertaining movie for viewers who appreciate particularly brutal action flicks without any compromises. Switch your brain off and go on this violent fun ride for two vibrant hours. Anyone who expects memorable characters or interesting plot twists should however ignore this film entirely.

Plans unravel to transport brutal convicts by air, so they are transferred via ship instead. The police and crew have their hands full as multiple plots to seize control of the freighter are hatched. Just when one faction seems to gain control, another gets the edge. Unfortunately for police, crew, and passengers alike, there is even worse cargo in the hold.
Irreverent and extremely violent, Project Wolf Hunting is a thrilling genre bender that combines action, horror, and science fiction. There are twists to the turns. Darkly comic and creative scenes predominate as when one poor soul is beaten to death with his own arm. Women often get the upper hand, or arm, as the case may be. The director and much of his crew were present for this Toronto International Film Festival midnight madness screening and world premiere. Kim Hongsun, the director, said that literally tons of blood was used to make the film. It is as fun as it is bloody.

Oh! I forgot Universal Soldier.
This movie has tons n tons of gory kills, brutal stabbings, a scary n intimidating villain, claustrophobic environment n some over the top oodles of blood.
The killer reminded me of Victor Crowley from Hatchet, the premise a mash between Con Air n the mid 90s Mind Ripper.
Some of the flash back scenes were a bit confusing cos of the not so familiar faces n foreign language.
Also I didnt understand how the lead cop got away from the killer so many times while the others were eaten away like carrots n radishes. (Fellas killed left, right n center without any delay).
Movies based on Nazi occultism n Unit 731 of Dr. Shiro Ishii n his staff (dubbed the Devil's Doctors) will always be considered by me as horror movies cos the crimes/evil perpetrated in the name of medical science n research went totally unpunished.
