Hope (2026)
Directed by Na Hong-jin
In the remote South Korean village of Hope Harbor, police chief Bum-seok and officer Sung-ae are called to investigate a mysterious creature wreaking havoc on the community. But all is not as it seems, and perceptions can be misleading. What begins as ignorance plants the seed of disaster, escalating through human conflict into a tragedy of cosmic proportions.

What critics compared Hope to
It’s fitting that this episode of Lanterns aired the same weekend that Na Hong-jin’s Hope hit U.S. cinemas. The rip-roaring South Korean creature feature unfolds with the same breakneck pace and small-town chaos that Hal and John are forced to deal with, in what might be one of the most adrenaline-fueled, action-packed, downright fun episodes of TV this year — all without sacrificing an inch of character-focus.
