Deranged

One morning, Korea awakes to some disturbing news. Corpses have been found in different rivers around the country. They all exhibit similar symptoms, with the body horribly dislocated and dehydrated. As the hours go by, more and more people start to feel a disproportionate thirst which leads them to hurl themselves into the water, where they die. There is no longer any doubt: the country is being ravaged by an epidemic, caused by a parasite that uses the human body as a host. (Sitges Film Festival)
