I was careful not to read, see, or hear anything about this beforehand, so when LCF and I went to see it over a week ago (yes, negligent in reviewing it promptly), I was expecting a horror story. So in the early scene with the pissing/puking vagrant, I thought, Okay, here we go, the start of some rampaging parasitic pandemic. But it was a fake-out, and afterwards I got a bit paranoid, thinking that director Bong Joon-ho did that scene just to fool me.
But then at the end of the movie -- and we did stay for all the credits -- there it was, proof that I wasn't paranoid after all, because listed almost at the bottom and in small print was: "Pissing/puking vagrant red herring specifically for cranefly"
