Beware What You Pour Down the Drain |
|
When a carnivorous amphibean bio-freak crawls out of the Han River and snatches the daughter of a deadbeat squid-shack proprietor, hillarious dubbing ensues.
To rescue his daughter, Park must avoid the inept government officials who want to lobotomize him and enlist the aid of his family: an archery-champ sister, his crusty old dad and a molotov-swinging brother.
Meanwhile, Seoul descends into chaos and the newsreports keep getting funnier
