Life Imitates Art In Korean Thriller KILLER TOON

Life imitating art is the central premise of upcoming Korean thriller Killer Toon, the story of a series of murders closely mimicking the works of a popular comic artist.

Popular horror webcomic artist Ji-yoon finds life imitating her own work when her publisher turns up dead in a way, precisely mirrors the images in her latest comic. Ji-yoon has an airtight alibi, and almost everyone suspects the death was a suicide or a copycat murder. Everyone except the curious detective Ki-chul lets the case languish as a mystery, but when a series of murders that resembles Ji-yoon's drawings occur, he finds himself unraveling the terrifying truth of the comics themselves.

Kim Yong-gyun directs Um Ki-joon and Lee Si-young in what promises to be a fairly bloody ride. Take a look at the first teaser below.
