Country living doesn't turn out quite like this dysfunctional family had hoped for in this riotous black comedy from director Kim Ji-woon. When a family opens a mountain lodge, their ambitions for establishing a haven of calm are soon dashed by the death of their first guest. The family decides to bury the body to avoid damaging the hotel's reputation but before long they're welcoming more guests in the form of a suicidal couple. Burying them seems the obvious course of action until the local council starts work on their long-awaited road through the families makeshift burial ground. Events spiral out of control until eventually one of the fatal guests happen to be a policeman and the full force of the law lands in the Korean countryside. This black comedy was the inspiration behind Takashi Miike's The Happiness of the Katakuris.
