The Wrath (2018)
5/10
Confusing and not all that captivating.
3 February 2020
'The Wrath' is a South Korean horror thriller I unfortunately won't remember for a long time.

Make no mistake, this is not a bad movie; it just isn't memorable enough. Some scenes reminded me of 'Evil Dead', while some elements reminded me of 'The Wailing' (although the latter was far more superior). It almost feels as though they had too many ideas that doesn't quite gel together into such a short film. At times, crucial information seem to have been omitted. This definitely should have been a longer film with more explored ideas and characters. The film itself is also not all that easy to follow.

If you're into the possession genre - specifically South Korean cinema - then rather watch 'The Wailing', 'Priests', or even 'A Tale of Two Sisters'.
