5 Points Pictures: Special-Edition DVD Release of Moss!

We’re rolling a brand new Sponsor Program to better help our content providers, but never forgetting our readers, telling them that our reviews are never meant to favor one company over another based on payment. If we don’t like something, we just rather not talk about it, and when we DO give a negative review, it’s probably because we care too much about something.

Having said that, American company 5 Points Pictures is releasing Korean mystery thriller Moss, which we reviewed for the 2011 Korean Film Blogathon!

GRIMES, Iowa, August 29, 2012 – Film distributor 5 Points Pictures is pleased to announce the two-disc, special-edition DVD release of Moss is now available!

5 Points Pictures’ release of Moss features an upgraded English translation of the film, plus almost 90 minutes of translated video extras from the South Korean limited-edition release.

Also known as Iggi (이끼), this critically acclaimed, box-office smash features direction by KANG Woo-suk (Public Enemy films, Silmido), plus an all-star cast including JUNG Jae-young (The Divine Weapon, Silmido, Castaway on the Moon), PARK Hae-il (War of the Arrows, The Host, Memories of Murder), YOO Hae-jin (Public Enemy, Tazza: The High Rollers, The King and the Clown), YOO Sun (Black House, The Uninvited, Gabi), KIM Sang-ho (City Hunter TV, Blades of Blood, Woochi), KIM Jun-bae (Modern Boy, Cruel Winter Blues), and YOO Joon-sang (The Day He Arrives; Hahaha).
