Why to Watch - Memories Of Murder

I hate to use the comparison to Zodiac, because this film came out first, and I feel like it’s not super cool to compare serial killer films based on real-life serial killers, but there is no way to pitch this movie without saying “Korean Zodiac” That being said, Memories of Murder, like Zodiac has incredible acting, a real slow burn, and a perspective of the descent into madness for those tracking the case. Oh and this is a movie from fucking Bong Joon Ho, who directed “Parasite”. Zodiac rocks, Memories of Murder is as good or better.
