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)
