3 Extremes

A trio of frighteningly good horror tales, directed by Asian maestros Takashi Miike (Japan), Fruit Chan (Hong Kong) and Chan-wook Park (Korea), puts viewers on edge of their seats---or covering their eyes in terror. One of them, Chan's "Dumplings," about a mysterious woman (Bai Ling) whose delectable delicacies have rejuvenating powers that reverse the aging process, was expanded into a full-length feature film.
