KPop Demon Hunters is, while perhaps not the most imaginative title, exactly what it claims to be about: demon hunters that also happen to be K-pop stars. But don't let the straightforward title fool you; the new animated movie is an absolute musical blast, start to finish, and has quickly become my new Netflix obsession. This isn't even hyperbole for the sake of it, as I watched the screener four times before release and have seen the movie another four times since Friday.
The basic plot of the animated film is that for generations, a trio of Hunters have kept the world safe from demons through song, creating a barrier that demons are largely stuck behind. In the modern day, this responsibility falls to Kpop group Huntrix – Rumi, Mira, and Zoey. And just when they're close to keeping the demons out for good, a demon boy band comes on the scene to screw it all up.
