Description
For generations, the eldest son of the village has been the protector, but the current heir, Dr. Cheon, is a fake exorcist who doesn't believe in ghosts. Using his penetrating insight into people's minds, he performs fake exorcisms and resolves cases brought to him. However, Yoo-kyung, a client who can see ghosts, approaches him with an offer too tempting to refuse. With his assistant In-bae, Dr. Cheon heads to Yoo-kyung’s house, and gets involved in a series of strange phenomena. As they delve into the mysteries there, they uncover the secrets of a talisman known as ‘Seolkyung’...
Review
Author: MovieGuys
Dr Cheon and the Lost Talisman is a weirdly watchable supernatural joy ride, mired in Korean mythology and mysticism.
To a degree this film is inaccessible. Supernatural elements reflect a Korean view of the other worldly, that's not that familiar or comprehensible, to most Western audiences.
That being said, what this film does do is present a darkly humorous, entertaining supernatural joy ride that's kind of a similar to Ghost Busters, India Jones and series like Supernatural but at the same time, very different.
Its certainly entertaining for the most part, with decent atmosphere, action and acting to back up its at times, strangely complex story.
In summary, an entertaining departure from your standard western supernatural fair. Certainly worth a look.
