Byeong-shin is put to shame by his students on his first day as a student teacher. Byeong-shin is trapped at the entrance to hell after uttering a mysterious spell he learned from Tan-hee, a high school girl obsessed with dark magic. Byeong-shin has to repeat the black art told by Tan-hee to return to this world.

 

JUNG Bum-shik directs another episode after Horror Stories which premiered last year. At that time, Sun and Moon maximized fear through the anxieties of a brother and a sister who are left home alone late at night. JUNG’s excellent skills at horror films are well displayed through his screenplay for Epitaph and his direction of the film which deals with a bizarre incident at a hospital in Seoul in 1942. Delicate camera work that instills fear inside humans coined a new phrase, “sensitive horror.”  Director JUNG captivates audiences with the extraordinary setting of Escape where people move to another world via an elevator, one of the spaces that many people feel fear in their everyday lives. The unpredictable story leads people to feel a new kind of fear through sensual mise-en-scene.
