gory, funny with a questionable plot

I just had to write a review because the ending left me absolutely baffled. I’m still confused on who Kim Seon Ho is supposed to be. In his introduction, he said something like “I’m older than I look.” I can’t tell whether that means he’s not human or he just has amazing genetics. His character 100% carried the plot. Now, I may be a little biased to his charm, but his acting was perfect. His character is so charming and funny.

*major spoilers of plot*

I still don’t understand why the Childe went thru all that work to find a replacement and fake his records just because he’s dying. Like, if he wanted to do some good that was definitely not the way to go. It’s also never explained exactly who he is?? Like, where did he learn all that fighting from. We did learn he is half Filipino, which means he’s human ig. That whole parkour action sequence was so funny by the way.

Okay so, this wasn’t a horror movie, so idk why they made the dude kinda stupid. I literally don’t know his name but it’s the main dude who was taken away to Korea. This man literally goes to the road when he’s being chased by a car(?) like, sonny, you’re not outrunning a car. If he had any chance at escaping, it would’ve been running off in the forest. But you have to give it to him, he actually did run, while most characters seem to like basically handing themselves over. Also, why does he never take the gun. He had a couple chances but he just ran off without it.

Go Ara. haven’t seen her in a while but I loved her part in this movie. I don’t quite get why she died because it showed she was in cahoots with the Childe’s plan? I Guess she just got more money from the daughter and switched sides.

Overall, I think it was great casting with great characters, but the plot was a little sketchy. Definitely worth a watch for Kim Seon Ho’s psycho character and acting.
