This episode is about the terrifying Korean ghost story by Kim Jee-woon, A Tale of Two Sisters. From Wikipedia: "The film is inspired by a Joseon Dynasty era folktale entitled Janghwa Hongryeon jeon, which has been adapted to film several times. The plot focuses on a recently released patient from a mental institution who returns home with her sister, only to face disturbing events between her stepmother and the ghosts haunting their house—all of which are connected to a dark past in the family's history."
But first! Josh receives a care package for his sickness. Drusilla goes to the super horny Renaissance Pleasure Faire. They discuss Our Flag Means Death, The Northman by Robert Eggers. Drusilla doesn't like Conan the Barbarian, which is insane. The past is TOO MUDDY!!! Does Jabberwocky suck? Josh watched the Blu-ray of LA Plays Itself: The Fred Halsted Collection and WOW. We love Altered Innocence and Anus Films. Josh watches Withnail and I and How to Get Ahead in Advertising. Drusilla sees the Nicholas Cage movie, The Unbearable Weight of Massive Talent. Josh crushes on Pedro Pascal. Dru watched The Crimson Pirate. Everyone in old Hollywood was queer and maybe Burt Lancaster was closeted trans? Jayne Mansfield and Anton Lavey were homies and it's Beltane.
Then they get into the feature. This is the most successful Korean horror film and the first Korean film to be released broadly in American theaters. Of course, Dru did the artwork for Arrow's release of this film. Josh and Dru compare this to the work of David Lynch and describe a horrifying moment. Black Christmas comes up. The duo gets into wallpaper, ghost stories, Lake Mungo and The Haunting of Hill House both reference this movie. Neither host cares for 90s horror movies from America, but the movies from abroad ripped. Steven Soderbergh comes up. Then the duo plays Have They Seen It? before announcing the next film.
