Bugonia
IMDb: 7.7/10
2025, Black Comedy, Sci-Fi, Crime
Ireland, South Korea, USA, R
Director: Yorgos Lanthimos
Top Cast: Emma Stone, Jesse Plemons, Aidan Delbis
Isolation never ends well. Two strange people, who strongly believe in a conspiracy theory, went too far and kidnapped the CEO of a big drug company. They are sure she is an alien who came to Earth to destroy it or take over people.
The whole movie is a tense, and sometimes funny (absurd), fight between the person who was kidnapped and the kidnappers. Yorgos Lanthimos shows the picture clearly, without hiding anything, as he usually does. In many ways, this is a social movie that will likely shock people with its ending.
