"The Housemaid" was an excellent film of a slightly dim-witted girl acting as a servant in an upper class Korean mansion. The movie seemed complete until the end when a near horrific seen of revenge occurs to pay back the vile money vultures she sacrificed for.
One thing, they do it so damned well.
I'm not sure if you have seen the "revenge" trilogy but you should.
