Sweet Home series (2020)(South Korean)

[cranefly]

Because the central character is played by an actor who has a brother living in Limerick, and I was intrigued by the possibility that maybe Greg had visited that brother on a recent trip and had a chat with him.

Good reason. I've been debating giving this a peep. Do you recommend it for me?

I've been craving some Korean cinema, even started something last night that was amusing but I nodded off because I was tired. You know my luv of azn monsters.

Are they pure fantasy monsters or yokai? I guess in Korean it's yogoe. Korean monsters are typically more like hungry ghosts, not lamp demons. 

More important, are there tentacles?

Are there swordfights?

I'm going to recommend this and I'm not certain why.  Maybe because it was an interesting world to live in for a while.

I wouldn't categorize the monsters as yogue.  They are a very diverse lot, though all supposedly arising from infected humans.  Big spiders, an ectoplasmic thing (nicely done), ultramuscular giant, some mealy-faced gardener with a deadly weedwhacker, many others, some just glimpsed in the ruins.  No tentacles to speak of.  Yes, a sword comes into play, as well as a baseball bat, hammer, crowbar, crossbow, lots of improvised weapons.
