Korean Movie - The Wailing 韓劇 《悲哀》

Thanks Sophia’s Choices, we get to see Asian movies in Chicago!

Today, we went to see the South Korea movie, The Wailing, a horro movie in Halloween!

Since a Japanese comes to the village, people are dying in sick or hang-up. When a policeman starts to investigate the case, he finds out his 8-year-daughter happened one day seeing the Japanese, and then, got fever, started to show girlish face with evil spirit, driven by the ghost, the daughter killed the entire family including her police dad.

It’s the belief in certain areas in Asia, that some people die, but their spirits are still alive in the form of real persons, they could punish the living people.  The Japanese thinks the policemen is sinful, so his ghost spirit gets into the policeman’s daughter, and uses the daughter to kill the police entire family. 

自從陌生的日本人來到某村後，該村連續不斷出現病死，上吊事件。 當警察調查中，竟發現自己的8歲的愛女因偶遇這個日本人後，發燒走火入魔，  原來這日本人是活著的幽靈，進入警察女兒的身軀， 她一夜間突變成童麵魔魂， 受著鬼魅的驅使， 她殺死了全家人， 最後殺死了自己的警察爸爸。

這部電影想要說明呢？ 這個日本人是人死魂未死， 來世回輪還會對活人懲罰的， 警察被視為作孽， 所以死在幼女手下。今世人死與前世有關。

該片2016年上映， 在萬聖節看幽魂片， 更撲簌迷離。
