He’s taken the Jaws template and applied it to the mountains in Korea and the monster in question is a GIANT PIG! This should, in theory, be seven shades of awesome. So as a result, I’m abandoning that gag and just doing a straight review with the summary from GIANT PIG at the end.Ĭhaw, Jeong-won Shin’s 2009 effort is clearly an attempt to recapture the magic that made The Host so much fun.

It’s about time one of us took on GIANT PIG, and I reckon I’m the man for the job because I fear nothing that I roast on a sunday.

Back in the early days of our little gathering, one of the recurring memes was prompted by the news that South Korea had produced a little film called Chaw, which promised to be stock full of carnage wrought by that rarest of cinematic beasts THE GIANT PIG. ![]()
