Someone said this:
“ One of the things I really like about psychological horror is how it taps into the knee-jerk human compulsion to blend in and not cause a fuss.
Like… in reading it, I just see people who want to be polite.
’This person doesn’t look like they did in their photo… but I shouldn’t say anything.’
’Huh, I don’t remember my friend looking this way… but pointing it out would hurt their feelings.’
In the story when Miu’s mother is immediately suspicious that the Parasite isn’t actually her daughter, even she doesn’t wanna say anything to her face at first.
That was my impression, anyway. Conformity is a fatal vulnerability in good horror.”
how the hell are they being fooled
