Episode 6: Koreawoodland

Bong Joon-ho might not be a household name in the US, but he's easily one of the best directors in the business. His movies have always managed to tackle some of the distinctly South Korean issues of his homeland, while also bringing up rather universal ones as well. This week with the release of his latest post-apocalyptic sci-fi dystopian film (which struggled to find release thanks to Harvey Weinstein), we look at a few of his other films that are among our favorites - the noir-like film Mother, and the monster film that is basically Jaws meets Little Miss Sunshine, The Host.

And as always:

SPOILERS!
(As an additional note, we think that the spoilers are particularly significant in regards to MOTHER. So you should make it a point to skip it before you see the film.)






Time Breakdown:

00:00 - 47:15 - Snowpiercer
47:16 - 58:38 - The Host
58:39 - End - Mother

Hosts: Dave & Dan

Discretion: We may swear a few times. The "f bomb" may get dropped at some point.
