Memories of Murder is in my Top 5 of All-Time but holy shit...The Waling felt like a blatant (bad) copy for the entire time.
So much so that I couldn't even finish it.
You should also watch Castaway on the Moon, Train to Busan and The Handmaiden if you didn't already. Great movies.
Train To Busan was good but felt a little flat compared to everything else I listed. I can see why people love it, though and I'll give it another chance.
I disagree with The Wailing copying MoM. One thing they have in common is the flawless cinematography and maybe the tense atmosphere but on a whole it's not comparable, imo. Cops being idiots is a trope you'll see in almost every korean thriller ever made so that doesn't count, haha.
Thanks for the suggestions, I'll try go watch these when I get some money again at the end of the month.Give Man on High Heels a go. Also Assassination and The Thieves, also Age of Shadows is probably worth a watch, and Daeho: The Last Tiger of Joseon if you want some more Choi Min Sik.
