CJ ENTERTAINMENT Brings Sci-fi Thriller DERANGED to North America Korean box office hit to release on July 27, 2012 LOS ANGELES, CA (July 12, 2012) – CJ Entertainment brings the highly anticipated science fiction thriller Deranged to North America on July 27, 2012. Upon its release in South Korea, Deranged quickly beat out Hollywood blockbuster Amazing Spiderman in the box office and sold more than 1.3 million tickets in 4 days. There must be something in the water. Just
before dawn, skeletal bodies surface on the Han River in Seoul, Korea.
More bodies are discovered all over the nation. The cause of death is
determined to be a mutated parasite worm that brainwashes its hosts,
ultimately making them jump into bodies of water and to their death
within days of infection. As the number of victims rapidly increase,
the government sets up an Emergency Response Task Force and puts all
infected citizens into quarantine. Meanwhile, pharmaceutical company
salesman Jae-hyeok realizes that his family is infected, and becomes
desperate to find the cure. In his frantic search to save his family,
he uncovers a frightening conspiracy behind the epidemic.
About Director Park Jung-woo An accomplished screenwriter himself, PARK Jung-woo has established himself with acclaimed films such as Attack the Gas Station, Kick the Moon, Last Present, and Jail Breakers. Seeing the story of Deranged
as a metaphorical mirror into our own society, PARK portrays the
catastrophe with horrifying realism, promising the audience a disaster
film unlike any other. Deranged
