5 Korean Horror Movies from 2024
Exhuma
One of the best horror movie releases this year has to be the unforgettable Exhuma which left the audience stunned. From the visuals, the creeping horror sequences, the performances of the cast, to the plot, everything was excellent and stunning. The film delivers eerie vibes right from the beginning, making it a good addition to your list of horror movies to watch.
The plot of the film revolves around a shaman duo, a geomancer and a mortician who come together to solve the haunting of a wealthy family. The family wishes to save their newborn and is ready to do all it takes. But what starts as a simple task turns into something more problematic than expected.
Handsome Guys
Getting a mix of comedy with horror has to be one of the best out there and 2024 has got exactly that with Handsome Guys. The hilarious twists that come along with the sticking horror sequences will keep you on the edge while delivering a punch of entertainment. This is the addition that you need for an entertaining yet screaming movie night.
The plot of the film revolves around a trio who purchase a cabin and the terrifying things that happen to them after that. Following the story of a satanic goat-headed figure, the film takes us on a comic-horror adventure of a trio with three very different personalities that don’t match their face.
The Sin
The unique chill you get from Korean shamanic rituals is one of a kind which adds a charm to horror films like no other. These movies begin with either a successful shamanic ritual (Like Exhuma, because things went wrong after that) or one that has gone wrong. This film is the latter and we know that trouble awaits when something like this happens.
The plot of the film revolves around a dancer who has been chosen for an experimental art film where she has to perform geometric dance routines as part of a shamanic ceremony. Things soon go downhill when a production member falls to their death, but what happens next leaves them shocked. The lifeless body soon begins moving and there begins a tale like no other.
Dwiju
Ambition can be the root of many evils when it gets out of hand, but when the realisation comes, consequences instil fear in those who are already on the path of no return. Bringing the intriguing tale of such ambition is Dwiju, which shows peoples’ desires and a curse that follows them soon after. Because curses are what makes a horror film all the more better.
The plot of the film revolves around a professor and her students who take upon an exhibition project known to be cursed. Ignoring the stories of its curse, the trio soon begin working on it. But soon, they realise that things aren’t as simple as they seem and the curse might just be true.
Noise
One of the latest Korean horror films to release this year is Noise which brings the tags of disappearance, sisterhood, haunting sounds, and more. The story promises chilling scenes as you witness an adventure to understand the presence of a sound in the background that doesn’t seem to stop. New places can be scary and this film brings exactly that.
The plot of the film revolves around two sisters who move to live in a new apartment. However, when one sister goes missing, the other goes searching for her while also looking into the ever-disturbing sound that disturbs them. Unaware of the chaotic discoveries she is going to make along the way, this is an adventure that will chill you to the bone.
