Memories of Murder15
In 1986, a veteran detective from Seoul is tasked with investigating a double murder in the rural province of Gyeonggi, South Korea. As more victims emerge, he realizes they are on the trail of the country’s first documented serial killer. Based on a true story, Oscar-winner Bong Joon Ho’s (Parasite) breakthrough second feature subverts the typical police procedural, delivering a gripping and darkly comedic psychological thriller.
Reviews
‘Most telling of all is that tone, the slow, deep nuancing of what once felt cartoonish, the antic slapstick that suddenly turns sombre. With Bong, you never see what’s coming. And then you’re face to face.’

Our beautiful art deco inspired auditorium can be found just off East Oxford's Cowley Road.We are open 7 days a week. We open the cinema and box office 30 minutes before the scheduled start time of each film, and the Box Office then closes 10 minutes after the film starts. We only show a few adverts – less than most cinemas – and we only play a couple of trailers, so please don’t be late as the film itself starts very close to the advertised time!
