The gut-twisting movie,written and directed by Bong Joon-Ho, centers around a poorSouth Korean family and their fixation ona wealthier, more glamorous family. The New Yorker compared it to Jordan Peele's "Us" and thefilm has received critical acclaim, winning the top prize at this year's Cannes Film Festival.

"Parasite was fantastic," one person replied to the Tesla CEO. Another called the movie "Really good."

Musk, a notorious video game and sci-fifanatic, said hisfavorite Netflix series was "Black Mirror." The show's fifth season premiered this year with an interactive gaming episode and one installment starred Miley Cyrus in the form of ahome robot.

The suspenseful British series "explores a twisted, high-tech near-future where humanity's greatest innovations and darkest instincts collide," according to Netflix.

One follower said he is waiting for a collaboration between Tesla and "'Black Mirror'to show potential future downsides to car autonomy/AI if we arent careful."

Musk has had a rocky relationship with Twitter this year.

Over the summer, he claimed he was deleting his account after posting about Teslalanded him in legal trouble.He proceeded to keep it open. He also conflated preorders with "orders" when gloating about the Cybertruck's sales.

The Tesla CEO has more than 30 million followers.
