Parasite: Black and White Edition, The new Parasite poster seems to spoil the twist of Bong Joon Ho’s film. The Parasite was the biggest film in the last year. It was a South Korean film that had made history on more than just one continent.
The film has become the first Korean film to win the Palme d’Or at the Cannes Film Festival 2019. It has also scored an Academy Award and four Oscars. While doing so, the film has become the first foreign-language film to win Best International Film and Best Picture awards. The engaging narrative on a Seoul Family which ingratiate themselves on a wealthy family. After nine months of its first release in North America, Parasite is set to rerelease with a black and white cut. The dubbed Parasite: Black and White Edition will be released in the UK in theatres. The same will take place in Curzon Home Streaming Service from 24th July following the small promotional campaign that is currently underway.
The Poster Makes It More Fascinating
The first look of the Parasite: Black and White Edition is out. It seems like removing the traces of colours makes it enticing. The poster includes a spoiler that was earlier left out in the coloured version.
The poster inverts the coloured version, that was Galen outside and showed the Park and Kim families in front of the house. The basement dweller would be the Parasite’s biggest twist. The unwanted inhabitant right on the poster would be a definite spoiler.
A picture of two families isn’t precisely the most interesting picture for a film that is richly layered as Parasite. However, Bong Joon Ho’s inferring for re-releasing the movie in black and white was too reasonable to bring out the financial differences between the Parks and the Kims. The foreground existence of the basement dweller will expand the concept.
The poster does not really reveal the identity of the person. Parasite broke all the records and this will be interesting to see if it will bring something new to the viewers. The re-release will be re-releasing a new angle that will intensify the mysterious qualities of the Parasite.
