Handsome Guys (2024)

 Handsome Guys (2024) was such a cute movie. A delightful remake of the (ultimately forgettable) Tucker and Dale Versus Evil (2010), with a Korean and occult spin. The over the top CGI was enjoyable in context. No chills or thrills in this one, but lots of aws, mostly due to a cute pup, and a very adorable dynamic with big softie Park Sang-goo (Lee Hee-joon) and "kidnapped" student Kim Mi-na (Gong Seung-yeon). Would recommend.

The Happiness of the Katakuris (2001)

Kicked off the annual horror countdown with this mindf&%$ from Takashi Miike. The film was inspired by the South Korean film The Quiet Family (1998), which is on my list of the top 100 films of all time (currently #44).... But this crazy comedy musical version (with stop motion animation) was not as good. 😆
