    A Top 5 Horror Anthology Movie

    One of the greatest horror anthology movies of all time. Such a beautiful, sad and a little scary horror.movie. No gore and a huge amount of blood needed. Unfortunately it showed a true form of horror that is very scary.

    The cool thing about the stories Is how they connect to each other. All done by ONE director. Korean movies and shows tend to have awesome plot twists and this movie definitely did.

    It also has a great soundtrack. Perfect use of the 2001: Space Odyssey theme song.

    My favorite part was the end credits. It's what all Korean movies should do. Seeing the main actors names with a caption of them is awesome.

    Love it

    • I usually love anthologies, especially when they are very creative, so, I'm not surprised to like this more than the most.


    • The way it blends genres and lightly addresses what it portrays on screen might offend some. I consider it quite well executed, capable of entertaining every minute. Very funny and a fun time.


    • Some chapters are funnier. Some are more intense. Some carry more messages. All different, but in the end, I really enjoyed them all.


    • I finished wanting to watch it all over again to connect potential missed dots.


    • I want to see all these actors again in different projects. Excellent performances.


    • Searching for a message in a film like this is a waste of time. It's a movie meant to entertain and is quite cynical because that's how its author sees this world. This New Normal.

    Trust no one ...

    No pun intended - in this world we are alone. I mean that is the way to see things right? Hopefully that bleak outlook is not entirely true for you. We normally do have people around us. And while in the end we are sort of alone, that does not mean we can't or shouldn't be able to trust at least some people.

    When it comes to this movie though, you will learn quickly that believing in anyone can be ... well fatal. This is a movie of course, so hopefully this will not make you isolate yourself. It is quite entertaining to watch - and while it seems to consist of individual short stories, they are more than a bit connected ... how so? You have to watch to find out ... and no this will not become the new normal .. right?

    Misleading summary, disappointing movie overall

    Man, this movie was a total letdown. The summary made it sound like it was gonna be somethin EPIC, like "a time of chaos all mankind never seen before" or something, but nah, it's just a bunch of short YouTube horror videos mashed together into a "movie". Like, if they just said that in the summary, I wouldn't even care, but they hyped it up so much I feel scammed. First few plot twists were kinda okay, but the ending? Trash. The stories don't even connect. It's like they tried but failed HARD-barely anyone crosses over, and it's not even meaningful. It is exaggerated to say they are connected. It would be more correct to say a few people from the stories of other people appear as "cameos" in other people's stories. Ain't never watching again. I don't even remember the first stories cuz the whole thing is so forgettable. 0/10 if I could, never watchin this again. I luv horror movies, but this ain't it.

    so coool l love it!!!!!

    The movie is so much fun.

    It's thrilling, too.

    I fell in love with this movie.

    Also, the actors' acting is good.

    Actors Choi Ji-woo, Choi Min-ho, Jung Dong-won, Pyo Ji-hoon, Ha Da-in, and Jung Dong-won all had very attractive characters and stories.

    Make sure you watch this movie

    It's unique and fun

    Director Jung Bum-sik's directing is the best.

    I was happy to see such a good movie at the festival.

    I got your back.

    I met another good work in Korea.

    The response was good at the theater.

    The message is also clear.

    Even if it's not a happy ending, the fun is clear.

    I came as an actor's fan and became a movie fan.
