Synopsis
Like Geo-Lobotomy, Anti-Gas Skin also features a serial killer. However, now the action does not take place in a very small town, but in Seoul. It’s an election day in the South Korean capital, and four people are related to and by the killer who wears the gas mask: Miju, a young were-wolf (with hairy cheeks); Bosik, a cop who fancies himself as a superhero; Patrick, an American marine; and Ju Sanggeun, the favorite among the candidates for mayor. There’s no peace within the characters, the city, or this cinema of unease by the Kims, who are enraged chroniclers of contemporary society and make use of exploding genres (Anti-Gas Skin is an ultra-rarified thriller) to later pick up the pieces and put together artifacts as disturbing as fascinating. The intriguing and strange features in the Kims’ nightmare universe don’t feel fake but genuine, and charged with a satirical social critique; they are in good health, and empowered by the energy they get from not binding themselves to any pre-wrote recipe.
