We learned back in February of this year that Artsploitation Films would be releasing the Korean anthology Horror Stories (review here) this year, and now the day has arrived!
From the Press Release:
Horror anthologies are creeping up everywhere, and the Korean entry Horror Stories raises the bar with four terrifying stories (and a nail-biting wraparound tale), each one chilling enough to be its own feature.

under siege.
• "Endless Flight" has a serial killer escaping police...
