Between the living and the dead
Exhuma is an explosive mixture of south korean folklore and mythicism. It effectively evokes the universal dread and mystery regarding the afterlife.Our group of leading characters are the perfect bridge between the spiritual and supernatural, never quite here or there, always between the two worlds. Great atmosphere, never looses the steam, with memorable moments.
But then it reaches the mid point of the film. This is a strong story, but the uneasiness and tension goes away, and never quite reaches the same high as the first half.
This film is ambitious and creative. The cinematography outstanding and visually delivering the eerie emotions you are supposed to feel in every scene. It helps that the effects are mostly practical as well, which it's marvelous to watch nowadays.
Horror film fans will be satisfied but this story is more of a mix of genres. There are no traditional jump scares but very well crafted world building and character development that will immerse you in the film experience.
I do recommend watching this film without knowing anything about the story or the characters for a bigger impact.

definitely deserves a watch
this movie is a 10/10 for those who already know cultural elements related to shamanism and all about Korea and also the war history between Japan trying to colonise Korea and society during ww2 .but this is gonna confuse the heck Outta ppl who don't hv interest in folklores and traditional values of any culture.
For me it was 10/10.. the careful merging of a families grief with an element of horror but more with the feels of those similar war stories I used to hear from my dad when I was small. Overall the whole movie kinda absorbs u in leaving you feel enchanted in some ways.

I kept praying time would go slower so it doesn't end XD
I love everything about it from the outstanding cinematography to the perfectly "balanced" plot, it doesn't bore you with giving too much information and background story just enough to understand everything, and keeps you excited throughout the whole movie. I prefer these types of horror movies with eerie and gut-churning scenes with an interesting plot over movies with repetitive jumpscares and meaningless plots. The emotions the cast conveyed with their brilliant acting made me drown in the movie as if I were watching a real-life event live.Sadly I had to watch this at home I wish they displayed it at where I live I would 100% go watch this at a cinema.

WOW JUST WOW for me.
Acting on point. KIM GO EUN proved her skills once again and LEE DO HYUN what can I say, he was casted for a reason!Other cast members were great as well.
In conclusion, give it a go if you're contemplating whether to watch or not.
The storyline is good and easy to understand if you pay attention.
It's MYSTERIOUS> HORROR.

"Star-Studded Letdown: The Plot Twist"
It was the 1st time watching korean movie in india that to you know the actors like kim go eun and lee do hyun oppa will select good story, so i had a hope.When i was watching the movie in threate, i felt nothing like if you are fan horror genre may be you can guess what is going on but as kdrama fan i can't understand movie properly that to from pre climax i was struggling a lot what is going on!
The good in this movie was BGM and cinematography should get an award and actors did a fantastic job too. The story and plot disappointed me badly .
Special mentions about kim go eun deserves a award for doing a shaman role infront of original shaman 🙌. As usual our lee do hyun oppa did nyc job. But our girl stoles the shows with her unique personality in the movie.

Confusing and poorly explained, with abrupt transitions and unclear relationships.
Confusing and poorly explained, jumping between different elements of folklore and shamanism without cohesion. Many key relationships and plot points are left unclear, making it hard to follow the story. Despite a promising premise, the film relies too much on audience interpretation, leaving viewers with too many unanswered questions. The transitions between supernatural elements are abrupt and disjointed, leading to a lack of suspense and engagement. Overall, the plot's lack of clarity and coherence made the movie a frustrating watch.Was this review helpful to you?

Atueações incriveis
Nossa que filme viu, é óbvio que tive medo, mas o filme é bem completo e como sempre a Coreia trazendo o seu passado com o Japão, a go Eun soube interpretar muito bem o personagem eu amei, tanto ela como o do hyun e os outros! Não tenho muito o que falar, não é um filme que eu pararia pra ver assim do nada e nem que faz parte do meu interesse imediato, assisti mais por conta dos atores.Was this review helpful to you?

Ожидания были завышены
Как будто из конца 90-х страшилку посмотрела. У фильма слишком высокий рейтинг, а мне что показали? не то? Не уверена, что герои победили зло, они так и не нашли тело для сожжения, и я так поняла, это была всего лишь Игла, за которой еще что-то есть. Либо я такая глупая, либо проблемы озвучки. В фильме животных настоящих пострадало в разы больше, чем выдуманных героев. Не вызвало никаких эмоций и нет чувства погружения в потусторонний мир. При такой задумке и сюжете можно было в разы лучше сделать и развернуть интересней. К картинке претензий нет. Все звездочки только за звонки деда в начале с требованием открыть окноWas this review helpful to you?
