Set in Hope Harbor near the North Korean border, a local police chief leads a frantic chase against a towering, sinewy alien that defies explanation — and even the cops’ best efforts. While the CGI stumbles and the runtime stretches thin, Na’s signature intensity thrives, especially in the adrenaline-fueled finale. A standout performance from Hoyeon (of Squid Game fame) adds grit and wit, as does a hilarious autopsy scene and a terrified villager’s eyewitness tale. It’s messy, unpredictable, and gloriously over-the-top — a genre-bending ride that leaves you breathless and begging for more.
