Michael Hanake meets the Blair Witch Project in Kim Gok's Exhausted, a vicious kick in the pants to everyone in the audience, all in the name of "style." A man meets a mute woman, and as any reasonable person would do in such a situation, makes her his prostitute. But the pimping is the least of our problems. As we get exhausted by the grainy faux-16mm camerawork, the film gets increasingly deranged. The closest thing we get to a sympathetic character is the pimp, simply because he's got too much self-respect to fuck a mute whore. Everyone else is either a gory mess, or a gory mess in disguise. Even the prostitute, which even a thug like Lars von Trier would make likeable, comes off as a delirious scary woman whose shrieks strike like blows to the jugular.
Kim Gok has seemingly abandoned the Marxist critiques of his short films, going instead for mindless brutality which culminates in an endless bloody freak-show involving, among other things, a pair of scissors going where pairs of scissors should not go. In the middle of the bloodbath, we get an extended long take of the beaten prostitute's near-dead face, but it does not elicit sympathy or pity. In fact, images of the victim only make us shy away in shock. (Indeed, the extended sequence led to continuous walk-outs during the Pusan screening.) The long take invites us to stare, but it assumes we're as sadistic as the victimizer (and the film) is. Meanwhile the sound-effects (mostly a rumbling bassline that shakes the theater) pulsates with pure wickedness. With Hanake, shock creates reflection, which asks that we be critical. Here, we only want to escape. I suppose Exhausted has some virtues; the shots of drilling machines and factories provide a mesmerizing phallic backdrop to the pimp and prostitute's pursuits. But everything else hurts too much. At least Kim Ki-duk lets us breathe. Exhausted makes Bad Guy look like Lady and the Tramp. (asiaarts.ucla.edu)

【2022-5-2】氛围感营造的还可以，宗教系恐怖略加分，怎么回事现在对恐怖片要求越来越低了只要没有离谱到搞笑的行为逻辑我好像都能包容…
窄门一入深似海，黄泉行走按顺序。
一开始么鬼怪似的，然后整的平行宇宙，再之后还是另一维度。总之交代的不清不楚
前面的桥段可谓套路大合集，唯一值得一看的地方就是在地狱的镜头，不吓人，适合恐怖片入门新手看。
恐惧源于内心，既能控制人心，也能重获新生。
利维坦+量子宇宙，多好的一个故事，硬生生半路杀出个老公羊，老公羊对西方人来说可真是碾杀一切的存在，只要是西方主流话语权出来的作品，一切其他文化的好神都是恶魔，一切恶魔都是老公羊，阿萨兹勒从没想过会有自己能拿脸顶替一切神魔的一天吧，利维坦在这个电影里连跑龙套都不算，太遗憾了，三星半。
还可，一个有勇敢妈妈，废物爸爸，叛逆女儿，没用弟弟的家庭遇到鬼屋的故事，区别于以往，里面把灵异事件和多维宇宙和量子力学上靠，有创意没表现力
大boss很拉垮就是说。建议开2倍速观看。
女主演技不行啊，一点惊恐都没，明知道房子有问题，还不搬走，服了
小成本制作，不是很恐怖，第一次见到把数学公式和鬼怪联系在一起的还蛮新鲜，不过中间还是拍的太墨迹了，boss战斗力好弱啊哈哈哈
前面其实还可以，气氛营造也还抓人心，但后面就渐渐崩掉了，那个恶魔战斗力有点低下，母亲居然直接就从地狱把女儿救上来了，可最后一分钟却突然全家又着魔了，这转折不太能接受。最后，这恶魔抓那么多人在那排队数数是为哪般，西方恶魔这么无聊吗？
原来邻家女优都39岁了，最后上下楼梯的时候心提到了嗓子眼，可惜这结局也太膈应人了
女主的Uncle真头铁，先退了再叫帮手来干不好吗。
看了预告片还挺期待的 对于和数学结合的概念感觉还蛮新颖的 以为正片里会有更多展开 实际比较一般 打发时间还行 母女打电话数数那里是唯一感觉到恐怖的地方 看来一件普通的事情不断重复也会让人毛骨悚然的说法还是有道理的
片中女主的妈妈可真讨厌 像极了现在那些视自己的孩子为私有物品的家长 不断的要求孩子顺从自己 不过最后被反杀了 哈哈哈
所以，简单来说就是一个数学家无意中发现了开启地狱的咒语，还TM制成了录音胶片。每次播放录音就是打开了地狱的大门，之前没播放完所以只打开了大门，牢头上不来。最后一次彻底播放完录音，所以地狱和现实整个房子彻底联通了，不过这是单程票，能进不能出。
逻辑严谨，恐怖氛围营造感异常舒适，可惜全员be。
看了解说，情节真是胡扯，演员们一本正经的搞迷信不笑场吗？烂片，浪费时间...
欧洲的各种魔神是真的low。整篇剧情都是硬伤。
