Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
The film joins a small but growing wave of Western-Korean co-productions using cultural dislocation as horror metaphor, distinct from Asian-helmed projects like The Wailing.
Pastoll's follow-up to the critically acclaimed A Good Woman Is Hard to Find suggests he's building a filmography around women pushed to supernatural extremes by male violence.
