Few months I saw this film's trailer and since then I was waiting first for release and then for English subs. It was supposed to be a thriller and I really love thrillers and mystery plots. Now I can see on MyDramaList that it's changed for horror and after watching it I can say that it is a horror. A good one. Story is simple. Husband is dead and son is missing. Wife and mother is claimed guilty and send to the prison. After 25 years she came back to house where tragedy happened and tries to find her son, who she thinks was caught by mysterious being hiding in basement. You have no idea, if she's crazy, if she really kills her husband and what actually happened to her son... Film, even though it's a horror, for me is a family drama, which shows how powerful is mother's love. You can feel her pain and desperation. It's really sad story with lots of plot twists and unexpected turns. For example, I needed to watch last scenes twice to fully understand it. Acting was really good, even young actors. It may not be a masterpiece, but it's a film worth watching. Even for people, who don't really like horrors. It has interesting plot and scenes that sometimes give you chills, good actors and nice music. And Taecyeon being a priest, the only person who actually believes old woman story...
