Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })Influenza is a 2004 short film (27 minutes) from South Korea, directed by Bong Joon-ho.The film tells the story of an unfortunate Mr. Cho. As the film opens Mr. Cho is already in pretty dire straits, trying to eke out a living by peddling superglue on a subway train. He gets chucked off a train for that, and after being reduced to eating from garbage cans, he turns to crime. Specifically, he begins mugging people who are withdrawing money from ATMs. Eventually, he gains a female partner in crime (the film doesn't specify how), and his crimes grow more violent.The gimmick is that the entire film is presented as footage taken by security cameras. Originally filmed by Bong as part of an Anthology Film. | |

Anticlimax: The bank scene. Mr. Cho and his partner enter a bank looking shifty. A caption informs the viewer that they're both carrying deadly weapons. They seem about to graduate to bank robbery as Mr. Cho approaches the counter...and then music plays and confetti falls from the ceiling and people applaud. It turns out that Mr. Cho is the 20th customer on the 20th anniversary of the founding of the bank. He gets a prize in the form of a novelty check. | |

Found Footage Films: The entire movie consists of security camera footage. Supposedly they were all real security cameras, with Bong having to go back later and retrieve the footage. | |

Blatant Lies: In an early scene Mr. Cho is practicing his sales patter in a public restroom. He glues a leather strap to a tin can, the proclaims that, with this amazing superglue, it's impossible to pull the two apart. They then come apart. | |
