Short description

A group of dangerous criminals is transported from the Philippines to South Korea aboard a cargo ship. Despite being under the watch of experienced police officers, the prisoners launch a coordinated revolt that turns the vessel into a site of violent conflict. As the inmates fight for control, both the guards and the convicts discover that a terrifying force has been unleashed from the lower decks of the ship, threatening everyone on board.

This action-horror film was directed and written by Kim Hong-sun, following his 2019 work Metamorphosis. The production was a joint effort between the United States and Korea, involving companies such as The Contents On and Finecut. The movie features a large credited cast of 68 people, including Seo In-guk, Jang Dong-yoon, Park Ho-san, Jung So-min, Ko Chang-seok, and Jang Young-nam.

Produced with a budget of 9 million USD, the film has received moderate reception from viewers. It holds a rating of 6.1/10 on IMDb based on 9,436 votes and a 6.5/10 on TMDB from 463 votes. Film critics gave the movie a higher rating of 7.1/10 based on 51 reviews.

What's left behind the scenes

  • The original title of the film translates to 'Hunt for Wolves'.
  • The idea for the film came to director Kim Hong-sun while reading about experiments conducted by the Japanese on prisoners during World War II.
  • Filming took place on a real ship and on sets.
  • Director and screenwriter Kim Hong-sun cast So In-guk in the film after seeing him in the series "38th Squadron".
  • The release version for the Russian market is 115 minutes long and omits a scene of sex between two men.
  • All the violent scenes were carefully rehearsed before filming and then shot using artificial blood. If a take was unsuccessful, the entire film crew, including the actors, cleaned up the bloodstains to restore the set to its original condition.
  • 2.5 tons of artificial blood were used during filming.
