What they share
Theyboth carry the dread mood tag, and they sit in Horror / Romance / Science Fiction territory. If that's the register that drew you to Mary Shelley's Frankenstein, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.
What Parasite Eve is
November déjà-vu in a Seoul lab, the scent of formaldehyde so sharp it curls the nostrils. A geneticist's preserved wife revives cell by cell, assembling crowds of mitochondria into something glaring at the skylight. One long zoom from a tripod and a jump-cut—early Hou Hsiao-hsien horror by way of a subway car.
