Swallow that octopus and run away from those ants because we're discussing Park Chan-wook's 2003 masterpiece Oldboy!
Join us as we discuss the origins of Oldboy, from its manga source material to the changes Park applied to this adaptation, before going all in on this spider's web of a revenge plot. It's a film known for its big twist, but there's so much more to appreciate here!
Plus: that hallway fight scene, Manic Pixie Sushi Dream Girls, questionable CGI, death by CD-ROM, hypnosis as a plot convenience (but who cares?) and debating whether or not this is a "film bro" movie.
Questions? Comments? Snark? Connect with the boys on BlueSky, Instagram, Youtube, Letterboxd, Facebook, or join the Facebook Group or the Horror Queers Discord to get in touch with other listeners.
