Daisy Leigh-Phippard Screen Queens Huh Jong-Hos monster movie has all the chronicled period traits you could want, he just throws a cool, potentially-non-existent tiger-monkey-beast into the mix with some cool sequences that feel closer to a video game than a film. Feb 21, 2022 Full Review Rob Aldam Backseat Mafia Mixes political intrigue with a creature feature to create a charming and entertaining horror. Oct 1, 2021 Full Review Scott Weinberg Thrillist Fans of Bong Joon Ho's brilliant The Host will want to check out this fantastic monster epic immediately. Aug 7, 2020 Full Review Caitlin Kennedy Daily Dead Monstrum is a return to form and hits all the notes of a great monster movie, with a sophisticated edge that keeps the entire film refreshing and exciting. Rated: 5/5 Jun 25, 2020 Full Review Terry Mesnard Gayly Dreadful This mix of fantastical whimsy and stark political critique, like the monster, doesn't always coalesce into perfect union. But man, once it gets going, it's a complete blast. Rated: 3/5 Jun 8, 2020 Full Review Nathanael Hood Unseen Films Heo Jong-ho's Monstrum is a film that wears many hats-or, er, many gats. Rated: 6/10 May 22, 2020 Full Review Read all reviews

jose raul b This action/fantasy movie has a very original plot mixed with very good battle scenes set on the ancient chinesse context. A must see for asian culture lovers. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review Audience Member MONSTRUM is a fantasy monster tale with blood, disease and sharp objects. The creature design is pretty solid, mashing together realistic cgi and traditional demonic styles. The setting in old world South Korea enhances the bizarre-ness. It's not a scary film but it takes place during the bubonic plague, where the plague is given monstrous form. Check your gag reflexes at the door. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 01/27/23 Full Review thomas m Brilliant monster movie from South Korea! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review Audience Member One of the best creature movies I've seen in years. Awesome movie! Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/08/23 Full Review Audience Member Una especie de mezcla de El Pacto de los Lobos y Kingdom, con un trabajo de cámara, tono narrativo y efectos especiales que no siempre están a la altura; pero se deja ver... Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 01/29/23 Full Review Audience Member 100% action 0% story. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 02/24/23 Full Review Read all reviews
