Here's the rundown on the flick:

Bong Joon Ho brings his work home to Korea in this pitch-black modern fairytale. Meet the Park Family: the picture of aspirational wealth. And the Kim Family, rich in street smarts but not much else. Be it chance or fate, these two houses are brought together and the Kims sense a golden opportunity. Masterminded by college-aged Ki-woo, the Kim children expediently install themselves as tutor and art therapist, to the Parks. Soon, a symbiotic relationship forms between the two families. The Kims provide "indispensable" luxury services while the Parks obliviously bankroll their entire household. When a parasitic interloper threatens the Kims' newfound comfort, a savage, underhanded battle for dominance breaks out, threatening to destroy the fragile ecosystem between the Kims and the Parks.

Bong Joon-ho directs the film from a screenplay he co-wrote along with Han Jin-won. Song Kang Ho (THE HOST) stars alongside Lee Sun-kyun (A HARD DAY), Cho Yeo-jeong (OBSESSED), Choi Woo Shik (OKJA), Park So-dam (THE PRIESTS) and Chang Hyae Jin (POETRY). PARASITE hits theaters on October 11, 2019. Will you be checking the film out once it hits? Let us know below!
