Bizarre and hilarious

A cult classic styled comedy horror mixed bag that has an abundance of tricks up in its sleeves and it's hell lots of fun, it never stops throwing surprises around that are relentlessly entertaining. The insane acting performances from Lee Sung Min and Lee Hee Joon overpowering an absolutely dumb plot yet it works ridiculously well for its hilarious effects, what an utterly bizarre movie that was stylish enough to give it some great satisfying laughs.

Bizzare, chaotic comedy at it's finest.. most of the time

I have never laughed as hard in public as I did watching this, I'm pretty sure at one point some people next to me thought I needed help because I was bent over holding in the loud laughter and snorting, on account of not wanting to scare anyone.

The story is about two brothers (best friends actually but referring to them as anything but brothers seems to get one of them very angry. That or the subtitles confused me) who buy a cabin in the mountains and a group of university students (this could be on me thought, the subtitles never called them students but I swear I could hear one of the brothers address them all as 'haksaeng') who are vacationing in the same region. The chaos that follows from the first meeting of both groups with each other and their individual meetings with the.. other lead.. forms a majority of the plot.

As established before, this was extremely funny, genuinely heartfelt at points and kind of gruesome. If gruesome comedy is not your cup of tea (not my favorite), you'll have a hard time with some of the scenes, but it's only few in the plenty comedy scenes this movie had. My stomach hurt from laughing too much and my face was streaked with tears by the time I had finished the movie. Because of the laughing.

If you've got an hour and a half, give it a try, especially if nonsense and chaotic comedy is something you like because the entire movie was just that and not much more, but they made it work! Oof, I already feel like a rewatch.

I love sungmin and my “circle girl” Gong Seung Yeon, but writingwise it was a bit too silly
Basically final destination on crack with a ghost goat xD


So yeah it’s as silly as it sounds but it was an ok watch, the acting was good tho the “boys” were all so generic even I had a hard time distinguishing them
it was obvious they didn't take themselves seriously so it was easy to enjoy

they got a bit gory and disgusting but they balanced it well with crazy reasons

Ugly guys living a rustic live :)

Dark comedy as i've never seen before in Korean Cinema. It has "Home Alone" brutal style comedy only here for adults only. Also, unusually, this was ultimately a religious movie spreading the message that God loves us and want us to go to Heaven. Two main protagonist - the handsome guys - are not really that handsome and that fact alone was the source of much laughter for me. Their sole appearance made everyone make false opinions and conclusions and brough so much confusion and destruction.

This is the kind of movie that you have to see to believe. On paper this story can not work but the exaggerated acting with bizarre plot twists somehow produced a funny experience. There is no real horror in the movie but there is some gore so be aware. Go watch this movie and see if you would appreciate living a rustic life :)

GENRE IS BETWEEN COMEDY AND HORROR

At first I knew that this movie is genre comedic but I didn't saw how brutal some scenes is.
I like the humor plot at the beginning but in the middle when everything started to appear, it's suddenly began to overcrowded.

I have mixed feeling from watching this movie, should I laughed or stunned to speak XD. People should watching this with their friends to get their reaction hahahah

Fun remake

So, lets get this out of the way right at the beginning, if you weren't aware, thus is a remake of the 2010 American move Tucker and Dale vs Evil staring Alan Tudyk.

Me and my wife had both watched the original movie going into this, but still had a lot of fun watching this version. They kept a lot of the movie true to the original, we had a lot of fun figuring out how they were gonna implement the deaths from the original.

If you have seen the original though, it's important to note that the ending in Handsome Guys is completely different from Tucker and Dale vs Evil.
