Three weeks after the release of Netflix’s Parasyte: The Grey, an adaptation of the cultish sci-fi horror manga series, it stays as a prominent feature of the platform’s global chart. However, there is a big choice of other worth-watching Korean horror movies and series for chilling evenings, with 7 of them being enlisted here.
1. Train to Busan (2016)
The first feature that presumably comes to mind here is this zombie horror, starring Squid Game’s Gong Yoo and Eternals’ Ma Dong-seok.
Following a train overrun by relentless zombies, it offers a spectacular claustrophobic roller coaster full of twists.
2. Goedam (2020)
Next comes the short-form horror anthology, which is quite a rare subgenre for South Korean filmmakers, which tells eight separate nail-biting ghost stories, reminiscent of Korean folktales. It’s a must-watch for the admirers of this country’s culture.
3. The Call (2020)
Following two women, who connect through a phone call that interchanges their lives,...

Here’s a title for you: Demon Witch Child (1975). This is the kind of title that conjures up images of crucifixes, and vomit, and crises of faith; a title that demands you confront your own relationship with the spiritual and contextualize your role in existence.
This is not that film.
Released in March in its native Spain, Demon Witch Child (a Rob Zombie song title if I’ve ever heard one) didn’t haunt Stateside drive-ins until May of the following year. Pay no heed to the critics, who immediately dismissed this as another The Exorcist rip off; instead, Demon Witch Child (aka La endemoniada and The Possessed) picks some of the strangest angles to come at that revered material from - so much so that it ends up doing its own thing in peculiar and fun ways.
