I think the interesting angle here is that in their party, the family talks like they've gotten one over on the Parks, but the only thing they actually want is to do their jobs, which happens to be the only thing the Parks want from them. There's a lot of subtlety in the script here. Until the basement family emerges the only thing the family is guilty of is lying on their resumes, which pretty much everyone does already. I kept on waiting for the family's real scheme to emerge, but the real twist of the movie is that there is no twist. They really just want to be employed.

This isn’t totally true. The Parks don’t demand outwardly but they still expect their servants to conform to their comforts. It’s why the dad stabs him in the first place. When he sees Mr. Park cover his nostrils, it reminds him that he’ll never be accepted into this class due to his poverty. He can be the perfect driver but he’ll still be the smelly old poor guy working for the rich.

I loved this movie and hoped their crazy con family hijinks would last forever :cry:

It reminded me of Shameless.

Architecture Digest did a little write up on the house and the movie’s set design.

It’s an American masterpiece! It’s, it’s... talk about gutsy endings. The girl, the girls gets away, and our hero, Leatherface, chainsaws his own legs, two thumbs up.

It’s a horror movie about a future dystopian society, but we live in the horrifying future reality so it comes off as a documentary.

Am I forgetting something, at what point in the movie does the dad get an arrow in the head?

I don’t think he gets shot with an arrow, it’s probably just a reference to the little kid and his cowboys and Indians themed birthday party.

When I first saw the movie, I thought the knife went through the girl and poked the little boy, watching it again made me realize the little boy just fainted, which made the parents ignoring the girl bleeding out on their lawn double heartless.

Subs are greater than dubs, but I’d still watch a version of Parasite where the dad is voiced by Goku and the son voiced by Kaneda.

When the house is getting fumigated all I could think was all those people getting their pizza in those boxes that were getting folded are going to get poisoned.

Can poverty tourism be described as a “kink”?

I refuse to read those tweets until someone dubs them.
