Hey myself and figs are heading to 'Save the green planet' tonight in the ifi, meeting at 8ish. Should be ... odd :) -- Save the Green Planet One of the most surprising films of recent years, director Jeong Jun-hwan.s crazy yet inspired Save the Green Planet oscillates wildly from screwball comedy to psychological thriller, from sci-fi fantasy to detective drama. It opens with a bang.a pair of wackos in home-made superhero outfits kidnap a middle-aged businessman in an underground car park.and never lets up. The gleefully demented Byun-gu and his female partner believe the man they.ve abducted is a member of an extraterrestrial group bent on destroying planet Earth. With the world.s would-be saviour babbling nonsense as he sets about torturing his stoic captive, Jeong establishes a powerful sense of mania. His lurid, wildly busy spectacle starts like a creepy-crawly Silence of the Lambs-style thriller with eco-hysterical overtones and winds up somewhere beyond Plan 9 From Outer Space. Among other things, Jeong contrives the funniest death-of-the-dinosaurs theory and 2001 parody you.re ever likely to see. -- Blutarsky's Axiom: Nothing is impossible for the man who will not listen to reason.
