Sleep tight...

adiw from Leicestershire, 27th June, 2005

A big hit in its homeland, Koma is a twisted tale which remains surprisingly effective sometime after the credits roll.

There's enough tension in the opening act to keep the biggest of Eastern horror fans happy and the twisty nature of the final act becomes more and more appealing on repeat viewing.

But it's the performances of the two leads which makes Koma the satisfying night in that it so clearly is, both girls seem to be having an alarming amount of fun with the script and it's clear to see why both girls are so hugely popular in The East.

For us Westerners though, Koma is a very entertaining film which moves at a fast pace and keeps the shocks, twists and scares coming. The ending may never be in doubt but Koma is delivered with style to spare and it's hard not to enjoy it just a little.

A return to form for Tartan then, Koma should keep you awake in to the early hours.

Stake and Kidney

Bribaba from , 1st December, 2005

Enjoyable and upredictable thriller from the burgeoning Korean cinema. It starts out in slasher mode, with some rather messy kidney removals but quickly changes tone - in a good way. Unlike many films of this type, the characters are really fleshed out and sympathetic as a result. What impressed me was that you're never sure what's going to happen next. It has all the elements for a Hollywood remake, ideally with David Cronenberg in the director's chair.

kidneys

A Customer from London, 12th November, 2009

This is generally inspired by 70s film Coma I think. At least in the sense that organ donorship can be source of business when criminally approached by expert professionals. When you get donor card and wake up in bath of ice you will know who got you. Great movie, made me guessing till the end, which becomes obvious after you've seen it. Recommend it.

I watched it all. Good storyline and good acting but a bit weak and pointless
