SECTOR 7 is a adrenaline-fuelled monster flick from South Korea, but it’s nowhere near in the same class as the quirky masterpiece that is THE HOST, so if you’re looking for similarities between the two you’ll be disappointed. Instead this is the kind of foreign production that happily copies Hollywood classics, in this case the likes of ALIEN, ALIENS, and JAWS.

The film is set on an oil rig where the light crew are terrorised by a hulking undersea beastie. While I appreciate that the filmmakers are happy to show off the monster here – and quite extensively – which makes a pleasing contrast to the kind of teasing behaviour exhibited in many a Hollywood movie – the CGI effects are only acceptable, really, and hardly the stuff of greatness (as in THE HOST).In Sector 7, an underwater oil field located south of Jeju Island, Hae-jun is working as a marine equipment manager on an oil prospecting ship called Eclipse. Joining the crew later is Jeong-man, a former colleague of Hae-jun’s father, assigned to Eclipse as captain. Though his job is to oversee the withdrawal of the ship, he suggests conducting some drilling one last time.
