Review of Dumplings (2004) by Keiko M — 18 Jul 2012
Dumplings is a Chinese horror film that actually managed to gross me out for once. The horror isn't out right slasher flick or even excessive gore but the subtlety of the appalling human behavior makes it actually plausible.
An older out of work actress desperate to save her failing marriage goes to nauseating lengths to stay young and beautiful all for a culture's obsession with youth. Making you wonder if Hollywood starlets will try it one day.
That crunch sound forever turned me off to steamed dumplings.
