BONG HITS: BARKING DOGS NEVER BITE

"Wacky, farcical and grimly realist."—Peter Bradshaw, The Guardian

"An idiosyncratic worldview and an eccentric sense of humor enliven... a black comedy with a smattering of social commentary."—David Rooney, Variety

"Bong takes the moral measure of his human characters by showing how they relate to their animal neighbours."—Anton Bitel, Little White Lies

In Bong Joon-ho's debut film, an unemployed grad student with an expectant wife is driven to distraction by a yapping dog located somewhere in his large apartment complex. Determined to relieve his annoyance, he sets off to take extreme action against his tormentor—an action that will come to haunt him.
