"Parasite" is truly a modern masterpiece. For those who don't know, the film released in 2019 to immediate acclaim, winning several awards, and for good reason. The plot follows a poor family and a rich family in Korea. The poor family live underground in a tiny apartment sized home, with little food and luxuries. On the other hand, the richer family lives in a beautiful, futuristic home that looks like something out of a Stanley Kubrick film like "A Clockwork Orange" due to its intriguing architecture and design. Anyway, the son in the poor family receives a request from a friend to work at the rich family home. He agrees, and as the story goes on, the poor family forges a plan to purposely eliminate and fire every other worker at the house to be the exclusive workers. Their plan works, in a wacky and comical way. However, it becomes more of a thriller and even horror once the house's basement is revealed to have a man hiding within, the husband of one of the previous workers. It begins to go downhill, and that's when the film peaks and became one of my all time favorites.
Overall, it is a must watch for any movie fan or student! 10/10.
