The Bong Joon-Ho Collection [4 Discs]

Bong Joon-ho Coll. (4Pc)(ws)

Overview

As one of the most universally beloved and the most fiscally successful Korean director of the early 21st century (his horror outing The Host] set records that still haven't been topped), Bon g Joon-Ho also checks in as wildly, brilliantly eccentric and offbeat. As many critics have observed time and again, his films have a way of both slipping effortlessly in-between genres, and snaking off in the most unpredictable of narrative directions. This collection presents three of Joon-Ho's features. The 2009 Mother presents a quirky murder mystery about a diabolical mother with an unhealthy degree of attachment to her nimble-brained son; The Host (2006) - presented here in a special collector's edition - tells of a giant amphibious creature that turns up in the Han River and begins devouring humans; and Joon-Ho's debut feature, the wicked black comedy Barking Dogs Never Bite (2000), tells of a man driven around the bend by his pregnant wife's nagging and the yammering of a local pooch - so driven that he resorts to canine murders to get some peace and quiet.
