Synopsis
In this eminently creepy horror show, college student Hee-jin returns home in the wake of her younger sister’s disappearance, only to find her mother a fanatical religious convert and the family’s neighbors offing themselves in increasingly bizarre and grotesque ways. Together with detective Tae-hwan, Hee-jin must unravel the tangled web of connections between the victims that will lead back to the missing girl. –Tribeca Film Festival

Pretty good chiller that tries to do something different than all the other Korean horror movies out there. It had som really cool and chilling/weird moments that made the movie stand out. The ending was also really well handled and not what I expected.
