Save the Green Planet! is a Black Comedy/Science Fiction film directed by Jang Jun-hwan.

A mentally disturbed young man and his girlfriend kidnap a wealthy executive, convinced that the latter is really a top-ranking alien on a mission to destroy Earth. Chaos ensues.

Tropes used in Save the Green Planet! include:

Cold-Blooded Torture: Byeong-gu's modus operandi.
Downer Ending- Byeong-gu is shot dead by the police and the aliens view Earth as a failed experiment and end up blowing it up.
Earthshattering Kaboom - What happens at the end.
Everything's Worse with Bees - Byeong-gu throws honey on a police officer and releases several crates full of bees. Guess what happens.
Human Alien - Byeong-gu thinks the executive is this.
Impaled Palm: The executive is nailed to a chair.
Mood Whiplash - The film goes from surreal comedy to horror in a second. This trailer should give you an idea of what to expect.
Photo Montage - There's one over the credits.
Traumatic Haircut - The executive's head is shaved early on as Byeong-gu believes that the aliens can communicate to each other with their hair.
Twist Ending - The executive was an alien prince all along.
Well-Intentioned Extremist - Lee Byeong-gu believes he's saving Earth.
X Meets Y: Men in Black meets Misery
