Why did Park Chan Wook feel it necessary to add the torture scenes

>masturbatory
Isn't that what this movie is for?

The whole third act was a complete mess for me, loved it until then.

Also that mid-coitus lesbian "Dillon, you son of a bitch" moment was absolutely based.

So the 30 minute sex scene wasn't self masturbatory but the 5 minute plot related torture scene was?

>A self-indulgent director has self-indulgent scenes in his movies

Who could possibly have guessed.

hahahahah look at this faggot, he's still trying to shill his manchild videos here lmao
no one likes you or your videos no matter their opinion on the movie, it's honestly sad

>>82197441
for me it just kinda helped me realize how sick the fucker was. like before that, i knew he was a creep, but since all japs are creepy pedos i thought it was whatever until the torture

3rd act was a mistake

I felt as though Park Chan Wook was painting the fake count as a villain doing that, when in fact all 3 of them were liars. When i say it felt masturbatory, i mean that in the sense that the scenes felt like the director punishing the villain with graphic violence, like he does in other movies.

to show how seriously fucking mad the uncle is?

>>82198836
And that was necessary because...?
It added nothing to the resolution of the story other than forced violence. It really was just a mistake to include that.

I prefered when the uncle was just portrayed as idiosyncratic and uncomfortable to be around as fuck over "lol i torture u"

>Was a 9/10 up until that point
ciao reddito

I want to show this movie to some friends but they'll think I'm a weird pervert because of all the graphic sex scenes. It's already hard enough to get people to watch a foreign movie with a fruity title like The Handmaiden but there's no way I wouldn't get shit for the sex scenes

Why would you show it to them if you don't think they'd appreciate it

It was the best scene, i broke out into a big smile after i realised he didnt just smoke all the regulars for fun
