The third and final film in the current series presented by Korean Cultural Service is Phone. It will screen free of charge on Tuesday, April 6th, 2010, at Tribeca Cinema, 54 Varick Street on Canal. Admission is on a first-come, first-serve policy. Theater doors will open at 6:30 PM and showtime will be at 7:00.

Phone is about the mystery surrounding the cell phone belonging to journalist Ji-Won (actress Ha Ji-won). Seems prior owners have disappeared or died under unusual circumstances. There's a real freak-out performance by Eun Seo-woo as Yeong-ju, the young daughter of a friend of Ji-Won.

Korean Movie Night Series Two: The Remakes is focused on three Korean movies slated to be remade by Hollywood. Director Ahn will be remaking his own horror film for the production company behind the Twilight movies.
