The terrifying day a ten year old girl witnesses her mother stabbing her father’s eyes to get insurance money.
Directed by: Jiwon Moon
With the big win for “Parasite” at the Oscars, it looks like a great time to be a Korean film. “Nose Nose Nose Eyes!” is also a Korean film, and looks to be another must see short film on ALTER. According to the director, this is actually based on a true story. Of course this film tilts towards horror, but it’s horrific in real life as well.
So the film takes the point of view of a little girl, who is stuck in the middle of some deadly family drama. It starts off with a dream that may scare the audience, but definitely scares the girl. She runs to her mother for comfort. Her mother seems normal at first, but there’s nothing normal about what she’s doing. The mother gets a call from the girl’s uncle, and clearly lies to him because she wants to keep the insurance money for herself. The girl questions her mother about it, but is dismissed. Instead of going to her room, the girl sneaks into her parents room, where she comes close to experiencing real horror.
As the mother goes so does this film. Besides the opening scare everything seems normal until the mother starts acting more and more questionable. It doesn’t really pick up until the audience sees the dad’s condition, and what the mother is about to do to him. The film does a great job in how the mother slowly paces herself in mentally torturing the dad, and bringing the fear for him to the girl and audience. They create two great shots of the mother in the room before this one ends. Make sure to watch “Nose Nose Nose Eyes” below and be thankful none of your family members torture you for insurance money!
