Michael Hanake meets the Blair Witch Project in Kim Gok's Exhausted, a vicious kick in the pants to everyone in the audience, all in the name of "style." A man meets a mute woman, and as any reasonable person would do in such a situation, makes her his prostitute. But the pimping is the least of our problems. As we get exhausted by the grainy faux-16mm camerawork, the film gets increasingly deranged. The closest thing we get to a sympathetic character is the pimp, simply because he's got too much self-respect to fuck a mute whore. Everyone else is either a gory mess, or a gory mess in disguise. Even the prostitute, which even a thug like Lars von Trier would make likeable, comes off as a delirious scary woman whose shrieks strike like blows to the jugular.
Kim Gok has seemingly abandoned the Marxist critiques of his short films, going instead for mindless brutality which culminates in an endless bloody freak-show involving, among other things, a pair of scissors going where pairs of scissors should not go. In the middle of the bloodbath, we get an extended long take of the beaten prostitute's near-dead face, but it does not elicit sympathy or pity. In fact, images of the victim only make us shy away in shock. (Indeed, the extended sequence led to continuous walk-outs during the Pusan screening.) The long take invites us to stare, but it assumes we're as sadistic as the victimizer (and the film) is. Meanwhile the sound-effects (mostly a rumbling bassline that shakes the theater) pulsates with pure wickedness. With Hanake, shock creates reflection, which asks that we be critical. Here, we only want to escape. I suppose Exhausted has some virtues; the shots of drilling machines and factories provide a mesmerizing phallic backdrop to the pimp and prostitute's pursuits. But everything else hurts too much. At least Kim Ki-duk lets us breathe. Exhausted makes Bad Guy look like Lady and the Tramp. (asiaarts.ucla.edu)
虽然，但是不影响这部成为年度最佳恐怖片。看得我肾上腺素左冲右突的，刺激
一体两面的设定略感新奇，但逻辑线不够柔顺，另外故事架构确乎有《冰雪奇缘》的影子，套用在恐怖故事片中也算别出心裁，集百家所长成一家之言也是一种故事创作方法
过于80s的灯光，舞台剧式B级片的置景，切到现实时无滤镜的设计，以及就要感到无聊换台时终于出现的反转大高潮，真是……不愧是你。已经到了玩转风格和技术的级别了，动作戏乱入却也简单干脆到爽，一本满足。
抖音来的，全剧也就那一个地方有点恐怖，只能说寄生儿真牛逼，都能控制电
不同以往恪守本分吓人的温子仁，这次他试图融合多种复古风格，如果说一开始的宅内惊魂和复仇虐杀还是他《潜伏》和《电锯惊魂》的拿手戏，那么中间引导观众以为主角是精神分裂，以及结尾转折到超自然和body horror，就有点柯南伯格了。当然剧本细节还是挺WTF的，多亏温子仁有制造惊悚气氛的好手艺，血溅警署那段还真是顶，寄生兽这皮衣造型很范海辛的感觉。
终于不是制片挂名，是导演了！挂名的基本都不太行，都是概念不错，正片稀烂。导演的作品基本都有保证，如果温子仁的恐怖片都不行，那么恐怖片基本就绝种了。
这部电影身体力行地告诉各位，不用讲鬼的惊悚片照样可以精彩。后半段的戏温子仁真的是把自己的风格最大化，调度和场景精彩得令人惊呼。而且，他设计了一个新的恐怖形象。（虽然我觉得有点抄《鬼伎回忆录》）。我非常欣赏他的镜头把控能力，多机位的切换和一些令人惊奇的俯拍。加上他惯常的故事诡计——危险其实就在咫尺，你别一开始就忽略了，你没注意到的话，结局给你揭示吧！这一点上，温子仁和诺兰实在是有点相近，用影像的前后闭环让故事很完整精彩。只不过一个是恐怖片领域，一个是科幻片领域。
如何做到控制曾经控制自己的加百利？这一点是不错且有趣的设定，但在片中只一句话带过，而且出现在了最后一刻，如果关于反控制这一点在片中再多一些斗智斗勇的片段应该会更好
吓得我龇牙咧嘴，后背发凉，但是却没有感到恶心和后怕
然後溫導是有打算走奈沙馬蘭模式嗎？🤔🤔🤔
很好看啊，从头紧张刺激到尾，结局反转还好不是俗气的人格分裂，不过也差不多了，人格分裂实体化。。。最后那样也太恶心了

不要粗暴对待精神疾病患者。对精神外科手术的控诉。因果报应。凶手像蟑螂一样迅速逃窜。
太可惜了。
就这？剧本、表演和音效让我以为是三流导演之作。。
还是温子仁猛，这么老派的拍法竟然不显乏力，鬼屋+狂杀片爱好者将会得到双倍快乐。
低配版 阴风阵阵+惊魂记。血腥值加满，后半程泄气，总以为还要有一翻儿呢。
話說不知道溫子仁這部片的靈感由來有沒有受到史蒂芬金的異鄉人影響呢
在迎合市场并开创一定风格后，B级片才是温导真正内心的恶趣味，它在本片中迎来了全面的爆发！
本片展示了强奸不给堕胎的危险后果，呼吁世界尽快保证女性堕胎自由。背后有人，反手反脚设定好新奇，打斗起来也有视觉奇观，导演棒棒哒！
