In Honor of Kim Jong Il, Here are Clips From the Monster Movie He Made [Video]

Recommended Videos

Made in 1985, Pulgasari is the movie Kim Jong Il made with the help of a director he kidnapped, Shin Sang-ok. The clip certainly speaks for itself, but if you needed to motivation to watch it and the phrase, “the monster movie Kim Jong Il kidnapped a director to make” wasn’t enough, maybe the plot synopsis is. From Wikipedia: “The film is about a doll made of rice by a prisoner, which on coming into contact with blood, grows to become a giant metal-eating monster.”

If you’re itching for some more Pulgasari (and how could you not be?), YouTube is just what you’re looking for.
