A squad of Korean soldiers is sent to investigate a guard post that overlooks the DMZ. Seemingly deserted at first, the squad eventually discovers mysterious corpses and body parts strewn all throughout the post. Amidst the macabre scene they discover one survivor with a bloody ax in his hand, but soon he falls into a coma, leaving more questions unanswered. (officiële tekst van distribiteur)

OK, Jakub, repeat after me: “Don’t watch Asian horror! You already know well that it’s boring…” Once again, I succumbed to my curiosity and the passionate reviews and I procured this pretty promising looking Korean film. My God! Why do they make it so complicated? Why is it two hours long? Why do all the characters look the same ( :-D)? Basically, with The Guard Post I had the same problems as with other horror stuff from the east. On the other hand, I have to admit the execution is very nice and that there are even a few interesting bloody moments, which brings my rating to an at least decent 5/10.

Weird movie, I like horror movies about a closed okace with a group of people, soldiers in this case, and there is an aggressive virus that makes them kill each other. The film even has a high budget, perfect gore scenes, fine action, cool make-up effects, but the two hour running time hurts the film. There were a few deaf spots, the suspense was also very lacking here, so because of the pacing I didn't enjoy the film much, which is a shame. Formally a very decent affair. 60%
