Another knockabout Korean comedy, similar in tone to THE GRAND HEIST but a contemporary supernatural comedy instead. The story sees a group of shamans and ghost-busters descend en masse to a seaside village plagued by an overwhelming abundance of malign spirits; a battle between life and death then plays out. This one offers a good mix of story ingredients, with lots of absurdist humour, character interplay and action, and the climax is particularly good with large-scale fights and chases. Overall it's perhaps a little too Korean for my tastes; I did find the journalist character somewhat annoying and some of the mugging is just a bit too much.
