I am not a foreign film buff, I absolutely hate reading subtitles and it requires an investment I'm usually not into.

This one absolutely pays off. One of the best horror/thrillers blending moral ambiguity, unreliable narrator, and multiple characters whose behavior can make them an angel, or a demon depending on how your view them.

It starts off a little odd, the main character seems like a bumbling slapstick lazy detective in an apathetic unit with no leadership, it morphs into a mix of "walking dead" "prisoners" and "Constantine"

Please someone watch this so we can talk about it

99% critic score and 81% audience score on RT. I'll have to add it to my list.

I'm intrigued. So, it's more zombie / supernatural violence horror? I can't handle sadistic violence like some of you can.

Super natural horror yes, it's not a zombie movie.

We saw it. It's good but I don't share the same enthusiasm for it as the OP; however, it's well worth a watch.

It was very good but I don't even really know what happened. I had to read up a bunch on it afterwards for theories/explanations

The director has a new movie coming out that's getting a lot of buzz and has Fassbender and Alicia Vikander in it

Just saw it. Very good movie.

Spoilers Ahead:




There's something about Korean horror films that just seem a bit goofy to me.

Very ambiguous, kinda whodunnit. Even at the end you're not really satisfied.

And, any movie with a dog getting killed with a pick WX is an immediate no-go.
