About
As of 2026, it's 7 years old.
Parasite made history in 2019 as the first non-English-language film to win the Best Picture Oscar, a razor-sharp, genre-shifting thriller about class that starts as a con comedy and pivots into something far darker and more shocking. Bong Joon-ho's masterpiece skewers inequality with wit, suspense, and one unforgettable basement.
Its tonal control, its 'jump the one-inch barrier of subtitles' moment, and its searing final act made it a global phenomenon and a critical sensation.
Brilliant, twisty, and history-making, Parasite is the film that conquered the Oscars and proved a sharp story about class divides could captivate the entire world.
