Sympathy For Mr Vampire?

Park Chan-Wook, who directed Old Boy and Sympathy For Mr Vengeance, has chosen a pair of nice, ordinary, charming films for his next two jobs.

Just kidding… The first is a love story set in an asylum between a man and a woman who thinks she’s a cyborg. There’s no official English title yet, but the Korean version translates to “Even If You’re A Cyborg, It’s No Problem”…

The second is a vampire horror simply called The Bat. The plot is tightly under wraps, but Wook has been blabbing about his intentions: “It’s more about the question of the existence of God and Evil than a regular vampire movie. I'm not so interested in the vampire genre per se," he added, "more in the religious theme,” he told Variety.

The cyborg love story starts shooting in March, with the Vamp flick planned for a 2007 shoot.
