little_wackie This is another fantastic horror movie from South Korean. Totally creepy! This movie takes place in a small town/village, when a murder takes place. A relative kills his family. Is the murderer sick, on drugs, or something more sinister? Is this a version of voodoo? There are so many questions and as you watch the film, so many weird things are going on. You'll never guess the end......and I'm not telling! This movie gave me chills! Definitely worth your time. This movie is in Korean, but you get past the subtitles quickly once you get into the movie, which doesn't take long.
kxyang A good movie but it is not a great movie. This movie would have been a 10/10 if it was a little shorter. 2 hours and 30 minutes is really pushing it. They could and should have cut off some of the talking scenes and "comedic" scenes and make this movie just 2 hours. It would have been perfect. This movie is slightly uneven because it is very dark and serious, but then there would be weird comedic scenes such a a group of villagers beating up a zombie-like person "Shaun of The Dead" style. This scene goes on and on. This movie has an amazing ending though, and it is very bleak. It deals with Satan, Angels, discrimination, and morality. There is no light in this movie. This movie starts off in darkness and ends in total darkness.
versandeep Horror is the least preferred genre for me, as most of them revolves around same story lines and forced " jumpy " moments, so this is perhaps my very few amongst the horror flicks for which I am motivated to write a small review because of its awesomeness. The tension that builds in this movie is really terrifying and will stick with you for a while. I literally had a nightmare the same night after watching this movie; such was its effect. I think, the emotional struggle of a father and the sheer determination to fight the odds to help his child was captured beautifully. Also, there is a certain intangible weirdness in this movie that makes it really unique, served with some brilliant acting. I recommend everyone to stay away from the spoilers and just watch the movie. It is hell of a ride if you allow yourself submerge into the plot. Another masterpiece from Korean cinema. A must watch for horror fans.
M Art So twisted, makes you lost in labyrinth filled with demons and humans as none of em you can trust to get out, but your own instinct, your bad fate is unavoidable, though. Rank A acting from all the actors. Admire the little girl and the shaman roles. The shocking scene for me, when the shaman felt sick, and experienced a sudden throw up.
