Strangers from Hell

The main leads are very similar. They both have a very dark theme and are heavy watches, addictive and will make you want to binge-watch. Strangers from Hell has an alternate title that I've always felt suits the show much better which is 'Hell is other people'. These are both psychological and play on the 'seemingly innocent quiet kid/guy' trope who is 'not as he seems'. Strangers from hell is more 'current' for the time place it is set in. There are cats in both shows!

I think the main characters who both are surviving for life an also people eho are messin w there lives
and the main characters bith will loose their close ones cause they wanna live
and I just feel like they have same vibes

Both are about the main character dealing with their strange neighbors who have shady intentions. They're also both thrillers and a bit gruesome. Hard to differentiate what's real and what's not

- both are set in an apartment block/hostel
- both are thrillers with crimes that occur in both
-both posters are similar

Strangers from Hell is an incredible psychological thriller K-Drama that executes it's storyline perfectly. It has this way of hooking you in, and you'll remain on the edge of your seat till the end. And as an added bonus, You have Im Siwans hilarious reactions, Lee Dong Wooks great characterization, and brilliant acting from all parties.

Happy Ending is an incredible psychological thriller Thai-Drama which, at the time of writing this reccomendation, has only released a pilot trailer. Still, just from the trailer, it has a uncanny similarity to Strangers from hell. Jeff Satur, the producer, music director, and one of the main actors, is an absoulute genius. The trailer gives just a glimspe of the story without spoiling anything major, yet still draws you in from the first 3 seconds.

Any fan of one show will love the other; I am certain of it. And for those of you who have only ever seen strictly K-Drama's only or strictly Thai-Drama's only, it's the perfect thing to get an fan into something new. Please check out both series!

my personal favourite

The two series are thrillers which explore their main characters' psyches. Both shows have protagonists who start to reflect the evil, malignant behavior of the characters surrounding them. They both become increasingly violent and volatile. Additionally, in the past, both main characters have experienced much suffering at the hands of others.

The "villains" / "antagonists" in both shows hold a special interest in/for the protagonist (which they verbally announce), and believe the protagonist to be similar to them in some way or another. The shows both equally focus on the duality between their respective protagonists and antagonists.

Both Strangers from Hell and Evilive have wealth, or the lack thereof, as one of their central themes. In Strangers from Hell, Jong Woo's poverty prevents him from relocating from his current, rather hellish, housing situation. Meanwhile, in Evilive, Dong Soo's lack of money has led him to be trampled over again and again.

Strangers from Hell and Evilive mainly differ in terms of plot, as well as direction. Strangers from Hell is more "artsy," offering stellar cinematography and enough ambiguity & analysis material to leave the viewer guessing even after having completed the show. On the other hand, Evilive is more straightforward. Regardless, the acting in both series is top-notch. Viewers who enjoyed one show will likely appreciated the other.

Side-note, I noticed both series frequently utilize red lighting in order to symbolize evil, or a shift towards evil.

Both shows explore the minds and actions of people. Exploring the question of what is truly good and bad and what humanity is out of these two are very deep in both shows. I think an important factor in both shows is the initial desperation for money, which in that point in time equates to survival.
The filming and vibes of both shows make it hard for the audience to tell if a scene actually happened or if it was simply a hallucination/imaginary.
I don't want to spoil the show so I can't say much more but if you like one of these you will like the other.

Mysterious people who look like are going to do something horrible anytime, and the changes in main character because of them.

Both titles share an uncanny portrayal of people who innately feel off. Strangers From Hell immediately came screeching to my mind while watching Friendly Police.

The major difference between the two is that Strangers From Hell has a male protagonist while Friendly Police’s is female. The way events occur in the two are different; with a focus on what happens AROUND Jong Woo in Strangers from Hell versus what happens TO Ah Rin in Friendly Police.

Totally different plots at a surface level. Strangers From Hell is by far more sinister while All of Us Are Dead is upfront with its brutality. However, if you enjoy stories that dismantle humanity, you may well enjoy both titles.

Another contrast is that, while both focus on humanity, Strangers From Hell picks normal people apart piece by piece, whereas All of Us Are Dead uses a catastrophe to bring out the absolute best - and worst - of its characters. As far as viewer experience goes, Strangers From Hell twists you along with it, whereas All of Us Are Dead makes you a witness, but you probably won’t lose yourself in quite the same way.

Has the same sinister, creepy feel to it. unlike the cursed strangers from hell is more psychological. both have a hidden danger feel. like you know that the danger is there but you don`t quite know where its coming from

- Unreliable Narration
- Cannibalism
- Evil Secondary MC
- Lots of death, murder and dark themes
- Similar themes of being careful of those around you and betrayal
- Eerie atmosphere with horror themes

I couldn't help but think of SfH while watching TWW despite the latter being a historical mythology movie

Even though "Strangers from Hell" is not a boys love(bl) series I still think that these two series are similar, "Manner of Death" has a very intresting story and the cast is also good so if you like thriller series like" Strangers from Hell" then you should watch "Manner of Death"

Same creepy vibe throughout. ML keeps insisting something weird is going on, but people keep dismissing his worries. In both shows the ML is agressive but stubborn in his pursuit.

While SFH has a active FL who is involved in unraveling the mystery, SM2 has a more passive FL.

Both shows involve a cult who takes advantage of people and murders them.
