That one statement taken from the back of the DVD box says it all. Pop in Chawz, and you had better be ready for some incredible B-movie horror that borders between ridiculously hilarious and decently bearable. With Chawz, you get a simple plotline, a new take on a creature feature, and an incredibly "gifted" dubbed English soundtrack all rolled up into one.
Chawz defines its plot by letting us know that wild boars have developed a taste for human flesh after they begin digging out graveyards in search for food. Realizing that they love this new flavor of "grub," the beasts begin to increase in size and terrorize the local villagers.
In true horror fashion, we don't get a glimpse of the offensive beast until well into the movie, which actually helps create a bit of suspense in an otherwise drab movie. In fact, it is with this additional anticipation that allows a person to continue watching Chawz, and when the bloodthirsty boar is finally revealed, it is surprisingly worth the wait.
The behind the scenes featurettes are actually fairly entertaining as well. While much of them are in Korean with English subtitles, with select pieces in English, there's even a bit of humor on the other side of the camera. If you take the time to view Chawz, definitely allocate a bit longer to see all of the features.
With that said, unless you are seriously venturesome when it comes to horror movies, you probably won't feel the same about Chawz that I did. When it comes down to it, a purist will probably even tell you to watch in its original Korean soundtrack (with or without the subtitles). But to be honest, for English-speaking moviegoers, it adds to the B-movie appeal to listen to the poorly-dubbed voice acting and silly dialogue that accompanies it.
In all, Chawz is worth a view if you can pick it up for a rental, but only hardcore fans of this genre will probably want to buy. It is certainly entertaining enough for that.
