    Synopsis:
    Country living doesn`t turn out quite like this dysfunctional family had hoped for in this riotous black comedy from director Kim Ji-woon. When a family opens a mountain lodge, their ambitions for establishing a haven of calm are soon dashed by the death of their first guest. The family decides to bury the body to avoid damaging the hotel`s reputation but before long they`re welcoming more guests in the form of a suicidal couple. Burying them seems the obvious course of action until the local council starts work on their long-awaited road through the families makeshift burial ground. Events spiral out of control until eventually one of the fatal guests happen to be a policeman and the full force of the law lands in the Korean countryside.
