What We Can Learn From Korean Horror

In today's video we wanted to examine a few recurring patterns from South Korean horror movies.

We will be taking a broad look at four movies, two from the early 2000's ( A Tale of Two Sisters and The Host) and two recently released movies (The Wailing, Gonjiam: Haunted Asylum) to see what we can learn from them to make better horror movies.

Although, not all Korean horror movies follow the same exact patterns we just want to highlight the most effective ones.

I highly suggest you watch The Wailing if you haven't done so yet!
