Is it for you?

Who'll love it
A natural pick for anyone who enjoys a good scare. A good one for a late-night scare.
The mood
Scary.
The pace
Builds dread steadily, at 1 hr 55 min.
What might put you off
  • It's in Korean, so expect subtitles (or a dub).
  • Not one for anyone who hates jump scares.

Korean horror hit of 2009. Everything is picture-perfect for a family of three recently moved to Seoul from the countryside. But a religious ritual goes terribly wrong with frightening consequences.
