The Review

The title for this movie it seems translate for ‘animal trap’. Apptly titled as it is related to the monstrosity of a creature in “Chaw”, wild boars that eats human flesh.

The boars turned man eating creature, after man himself destroyed their habitat, with no food to feed on, these boars developed a taste for humans blood.

Well the film very mind reminds me of a B-flick horror tale, that has full of thrill and unintentionally funny.

Yes the movie is corny yet quirky. The beast itself looks oddly believable, although the CGI could be better.

This is a film of clichés and stereotypes, like me, you’ll to love it.

The Good

• Korean comedy slapstick
• Unique characters

The Bad

• The boar doesn’t look scary enough for me
• I get confused by the too many characters
