Bong Joon-Ho’s ‘Parasite’ Looks to Be One of the Year’s Best Films
Bong Joon-Ho’s much-anticipated new movie, Parasite, gets one final trailer before hitting theaters stateside next week. Having already taken home the prestigious Palme d’Or award at this year’s Cannes Film Festival, the genre-bending film has gone on to receive rave reviews from numerous critics, as you will see in the new clip.
You may find it hard to grasp exactly what’s going on in Joon-Ho’s Parasite from the two trailers, but be mindful that this is very much on purpose. We do know, however, that the movie centers around two families, the Parks and the Kims, one rich in wealth and the other in street smarts. The two houses are brought together when the Kim children position themselves as a tutor and art therapist to the Parks. Fast forward, and we see a tug of war for dominance that will threaten to destroy the relationship between the two families.
Song Kang-Ho reunites with Bong Joon-Ho to star in Parasite alongside Sun-Kyun, Cho Yeo-Jeong, Choi Woo-Shik, Park So-Dam, and Chang Hyae-Jin. The drama/mystery comes to theaters October 11.
