Netflix‘s latest event series, Parasyte: The Grey, directed by Yeon Sang-ho, offers a dark and unique reimagination of the iconic Japanese manga in a South Korean setting.

The series, inspired by Hitoshi Iwaake’s Parasyte manga, takes viewers on a disturbing journey as alien parasites infect human hosts.

Unlike its predecessors, Parasyte: The Grey dives deep into the serious and psychological elements of the story, set mostly in dark and ominous atmospheres.

The narrative revolves around alien threats led by a sinister parasite who disguises as a pastor, reflecting Yeon’s cynical take on societal structures and religions in Korea.

Characters like Jeon So-nee’s Jung Soo-in, Koo Kyo-hwan’s Seol Gang-woo, and Lee Jung-hyun’s Choi Jun-kyung bring the manga’s themes of survival, identity, and human essence to life in this sinister adaptation.

With a six-part storyline, Parasyte: The Grey threads through themes of power, deception, and survival in a world overrun by parasitic beings.
