SOUTH KOREA/USA: D-War. 2005

Director: Hyung-rae Shim
Stars: Jason Behr, Amanda Brooks, Robert Forster, Aimee Garcia
Release date: October 2005...?
Length: ?

Obviously this director has a penchant for kaiju type films. His last one was the atrocious Yongarry (Reptillian), but judging from the trailer for his new flick, it looks 100% more convincing. D-War stands for Dragon Wars, hence all the giant reptiles running amok. The only Koreans I can see involved with this are the director & the producers.

Synopsis
Five hundred years ago, in a small Korean village, a young girl named Narin was born carrying the Yeouijoo inside her. To protect her and to ensure that she is consummated with the rightful, preordained Imoogi, Haram and his master, Bochun, were sent by the Heavens. Bochun trained Haram as a knight, to be prepared for the eventual day when Narin will be delivered to the Good Imoogi. When the Dark Imoogi, Buraki, and his army of followers come to destroy Narin's village and capture the Yeouijoo inside her, Bochun instructs Haram to take Narin to the Good Imoogi and give it the power to save the world. Haram and Narin, however, have been taken by their mortal desires and fallen in love. Unable to sacrifice his love to the benevolent Imoogi, Haram fails to end the conflict between the Good and Dark Imoogis. Instead, Haram and Narin take their own lives by leaping from a precipice.

Five hundred years later in present day Los Angeles, the quest of the Imoogis is reborn. Haram and Narin have been re-incarnated as Ethan Kendrick and Sarah Daniels, whose bond of love remained unsevered throughout the centuries.
