The Humanist 2001 / 휴머니스트 2001 / Hyumeoniseuteu ,

Ma Tae Ho is the layabout son of an affluent retired general, a staunch Catholic who actually pays Tae Ho to attend church with him every Sunday. His only ‟friends‟ (who are more like paid hangers-on and have been since they met as children) are Euglena, a sadistic nutcase who lost his testicles when a ravenous wolf attacked him as a child, and Amoeba, a brain-damaged man-child. While driving under the influence, Tae Ho accidentally kills a traffic cop who was trying to arrest him. Instead of hauling Tae Ho in, the dead man's partner decides to blackmail him for $300 million won. Tae Ho is unable to get the cash out of his father and concocts a plan to kidnap him with the help of Euglena and Amoeba. Things immediately go awry, resulting in an additional hostage, a mutilated body, and murderous betrayals in the making.
