Kim Jee-woon kicked off his distinguished directorial career with this macabre comedy. When the patriarch of the Kang family loses his job, the family seeks a new beginning by opening a lodge in the mountains. However, when their guests die from mysterious deaths, the Kangs literally try to bury their troubles away, but their peace of mind is threatened by the government’s infrastructure plans. A blissfully ludicrous and wickedly farcical indictment on traditional Korean family dynamics, Kim’s hit debut film has won him numerous accolades as a new director.
