The Wailing [Blu-Ray] [Region Free] (English subtitles)

A great thriller - horror flick mixing genres and never banally derivative like the best Korean movies can be

Good

Stunning film - keeps you on your toes throughout. A touch too long though.

This is one of the best horror films I’ve ever seen. It has just the right amount of horror and suspense. I love films about demons and the supernatural. The end was very good and took a while for me to get my head around it. Please stick with this film and once you get used to the subs you’ll love it and want to watch again and again for clues ect.

AMAZON WILL YOU PLLLLLLEASSSEEEEE MAKE THIS FILM AVAILABLE TO WATCH ON INSTANT VIDEO PLEASE.....STILLL.....WAITING !!!

Best film of 2016 for me. Cinematography, Acting, Script, and the Mystery turn Intense nature of the film. Loved it

I don't know what that Vincent69 guy is yapping about calling this a Japanese film when it's clearly Korean, but it truly is an amazing KOREAN film. It deserves to get this gorgeous 4K transfer from Well Go USA. More than worth it.

Excelente pelicula. Un poco confusa si uno no esta informado del folklore de aquellas latitudes. Confieso que tuve que entrar a foros para algunas explicaciones.

Japan makes some of the best horror films 🎥 The wailing instantly became a classic in my collection it’s scary , funny , thrilling very entertaining ! It looked & sounded excellent both in blu ray & 4k . Remember folks unless you understand Japanese this is an English subtitles film for us English speaking folks. Sound offerings are 5.1 DTS-HD-MSTR for the blu ray & Dolby Atmos for the 4k UHD disc. Really nice case with this film the plastic sealing was thicker then usual it was packed very nicely not one ding upon delivery . They really look after their films! & cheap !!!! $22 cad doesn’t get any better than this!!! If you love horror & don’t mind subtitles I highly recommend this film. 5 stars !! Thank you again Amazon 👏

The bad reviews are for a previous digital release of this movie. Subtitles have been added and all has been righted. The blu-ray has had subtitles from the get go. I wish some of those people would update their reviews (or Amazon wouldn't lump all reviews together for different versions of the same movie) as this movie deserves a much higher score. The blu-ray is a bit barebones, but it is otherwise a perfectly good release of the movie. If I see the scores balance out I might drop my review a bit, because a movie this good really does deserve more special features. As far as the movie itself (outside of the physical product of the blu-ray), it is a masterpiece of horror well deserving of the acclaim it has received on the film festival circuit. Horror has seen a resurgence in the US, but few of those recent releases display half the nuance and writing chops displayed in Na Hong-jin's The Wailing. Korean directors have demonstrated a strong flair for genre pictures for several years now (The Host, Mother, I Saw the Devil, Snowpiercer), and now with films like The Wailing they're giving Hollywood a serious run for its money on production value. This is a gorgeous movie at all levels. The video and sound are both top notch, and the acting is superb. This is a movie that will revolutionize genre film-making in Korea, and I can't wait to see what other goodies we get from the peninsula in the next few years.

I am glad to have been able to order this DVD through Amazon.Com. I live in a Little Red Dot called Singapore where Korean movies and TV dramas are very popular. Yet, I couldn't find this DVD at DVD shops. I read a newspaper review of the movie and wanted to see it but work commitments got in the way and I missed it. When it comes to horror movies, Korean horror takes a backseat to Japanese horror. The Wailing is one of the better Korean horror movies. Briefly, the story is about a police officer who is called to investigate a series of murders in a rural community. The victims have their bodies mutilated. Plenty of gore for horror fans who want to see a bloody mess. There is a suspect - an old Japanese man who lives alone in the village. The suspicion is later shifted to a strange young woman who is thought to be a witch. So, is it the old Japanese or the young woman? A shaman is called to exorcise whatever demons that are believed to have been unleashed upon the villagers. He's no angel. I will stop here to avoid giving a spoiler. There's an air of mystery over the murders and how these were committed. I like the rural setting. There are creepy moments but, despite the gory scenes, this movie didn't scare the daylights out of me like the Ju-On movies from Japan did. Americans should give this movie a try - get a feel of rural Korea and Korean horror. Want to see something Korean that is really scary? It's not the demon in this movie. The scary one was in my country on 12 June where he shook hands with President Trump.
