I was trolling around and found this, is a RealPlayer movie file for a Trailer for a "Aachi and SSipak" movie I believe, and tit looks amazin` Peter had mentioned this before and I believe it was a web animation series, I guess now its a getting a feature length treatment. I got all of this off of Catsuka.com which is all in french, so I dont know too much, just that this looks REALLY cool!

Hey, I remember those guys! Nice to see the creator was able to get a budget. The ultraviolence kinda reminds me of Pandy and Retro from "Dead Leaves" and for some reason the artwork reminds me of the Beavis and Butthead movie. The camera work seems to be of an entirely new breed though. I hope it makes its way over to the US.

I'm in Korea again-- working on another commercial (pesky bills...), and hey, it's for Sony.

Anyway, I just saw Aachi and Ssipak on the big screen. OK, Jo Bumjin and Kim Byunggap are good friends-- but the movie is a total blast. It's totally and shamelessly without point or purpose, other than to revel in sheer sadistic, scatological, sacrilegious, sophomoric shithouse scribbling performed at a high level of technical polish. It looks and feels like a MOVIE-- and that is the main joke. Like Geoff Darrow's Hard Boiled, the insanely sustained level of violence is at once nauseating and ridiculous, but never numbing. A couple of moments slip into needless pop cultural references, but otherwise the direction, animation and design is astonishingly assured for an animated debut feature that cost under $3 million.
A labor of love(?) eight years in the making.

That's a recommendation.

Maybe it's just because I don't speak Korean, but I was laughing my ass off during that trailer.

I don't suppose there's any hope for a US (/region 1) release, eh?

Looks like fun...

Correction (in case anyone's using this site for research, info in English about this movie being scant): at the current exchange rate-- the dollar being down compared to when the project was started-- the budget translates to a figure between 3.5 and 4 mil U.S.
That's still nothing for such an amazing looking film.
