PARASITE
I viewed "Parasite", the new Bong Joon Ho tar black metaphorical/allegorical class aspirationalist comedy-to-slasher, last night....almost a day later, I'm still processing visual data......Like Snowpiercer, the film unravels a bit in its second half....lots of loose strings that devalued the movie....for me....a hand, dripping with blood, leaving no marks on a door being grappled with it; the trashed mansion, cleaned up in exactly 8 minutes, before its owners arrive; after the monsoon of a flood, just hours later, people are rolling around and sitting on the ground..which appears to be totally dry; the granting of paroles (!) details....details......the film gets real sloppy in it's 'editing' toward that Cinema Requirement......'one and a half hours'......I loved the schizo-kid's paintings......they reminded me of Jean-Michel Basquiat's or Peter Kiel's.... the penultimate garden-slaughter scene recalled Peter Jackson's early film "Bad Taste" and Harry Hart's killing spree in the Church from "Kingsman: The Secret Service"
