Seoul, South Korea will play host to this year’s Puchon International Fantastic Film Festival (a.k.a. PiFan) set to run July 18-27. On the docket will be 16 different SF/fantasy and horror films coming out of the Korea, the United States, Taiwan, Japan, the Philippines and the United Kingdom.

Some of the films included in the lineup will be “Starstruck,” a YA horror film from Kevin Ho; a joint venture between the U.S. and the Philippines titled “The Help” from actor-turned-director Nathan Adolfson (“Shopping For Fangs,” “Possessions”), and from veteran Japanese filmmaker Iseki Satoru comes “The Tiniest Sea in the World.” Satoru is also in production with two new films, a thriller titled “Sharaku” and an action drama called “Rain Fall.” Neither of these last two movies will be showcased at PiFan.

The festival event, dubbed “It Project” will also highlight genre films from Englan’s director Simon Rumley (“Stranger”); Frank Lin’s “Ø DB,” the Korean entries titled “A Song of Mobsters;” “Astral Control” and a fantasy feature from director Lee Sung-gang called “Snow Queen: The Legend of Lake Baikal.”
