Summary:

Three tales of terror. Exploring the outer limits of the macabre, THREE... EXTREMES is a bracing anthology of horror stories uniting three of East Asia's most compelling directors - Japanese cult figure Miike Takashi (Audition), Hong Kong's Fruit Chan (Hollywood Hong Kong, Durian Durian) and Korea's award winning Park Chan Wook (Old Boy, Sympathy for Lady Vengeance). Dumplings: An aging actress wishing to reclaim her youth goes to a woman who makes dumplings that supposedly have regenerative properties; however, they contain a gruesome secret ingredient. Cut: A successful film director and his wife are kidnapped by an extra, who forces the director to play his sadistic games. If he fails, his wife's fingers will be chopped off one by one every five minutes. Box: A soft spoken young woman has a bizarre recurring nightmare about being buried in a box in the snow. Searching for her long lost sister, she realizes her dreams and reality may possibly be connected.
