The Wailing

In this unrelentingly tense supernatural thriller, a foreigner’s mysterious appearance in a quiet, rural village unleashes a wave of suspicion among the locals—a gathering mistrust that quickly turns to hysteria as the townspeople begin killing each other in brutal, seemingly senseless outbursts. As the investigating officer (Kwak Do-won) watches his daughter fall under the same savage spell, he agrees to consult a shaman (Hwang Jung-min) for answers—unknowingly escalating the situation into something far more dangerous. Director Na Hong-jin’s meticulously crafted follow-up to the globally acclaimed THE YELLOW SEA is a dread-inducing tour de force of mood that pushes the unrestrained genre-bending that South Korean cinema is known for to delirious heights.

Starring Chun Woo-hee, Hwang Jung-min, Kwak Do-won
