neutral · AI labelView post →EXHUMA is a hell of a lot of fun for what it's about, escalating from a movie about a family haunted by the ghost of fascism past to a story of a whole country (S. Korea) haunted by the atrocious anima of Japanese imperialism, resolving into full on (slick) monster B-movie w/ lashings of folklore.
positive · AI labelView post →📽️ We watched Exhuma tonight (finally!) and I'm so glad we chose it for tonight. No review - I'm taking the day/night off - but it's as great as everyone said!

neutral · AI labelView post →I finally watched The Piano Lesson and it is hands down the best acted film of the year. It unseated Exhuma as my favorite horror film and I think John David Washington and Danielle Deadwyler give outstanding performances. It's on Netflix. Please watch it before you cast your ballots as critics.

neutral · AI labelView post →Last night I watched Exhuma (2024)… I’ll pretty much watch anything with paranormal investigators, it’s one of my favorite movie tropes. This started out slow and got more and more awesome as things progressed. Choi Min-sik (from Oldboy) is the lead and he’s wonderful.
positive · AI labelView post →The film #Exhuma has won the Jury Special Award at the 2024 Sitges International Fantastic Film Festival. Congratulations to the cast and crew!

neutral · AI labelView post →I'm having such a good movie year. Maxxxine, long legs, twisters, Exhuma... And I've been watching some of the movies off the 'top 100 indie horror movies you've never seen' list. Finally saw Godzilla Minus One. I had a hustler/color of money double feature. Love to be entertained.
positive · AI labelView post →Exhuma is such a great movie.
positive · AI labelView post →A really interesting thread about the film #Exhuma. We recommend it if you want to learn more about the lore surrounding the movie’s story and characters.

positive · AI labelView post →The Korean occult film Exhuma has inspired a new spinoff webtoon series that launched on Saturday.
neutral · AI labelView post →#LastFourWatched time - it’s all spooky up in here. Exhuma was excellent, Steppenwolf was grueling, The Wolf Man was surprisingly dull, and Titane was overwhelming. Only half of #Hooptober left to go! 📽️
positive · AI labelView post →One more boost for "Exhuma" on Shudder, a damn fine supernatural horror flick from South Korea that makes you think it's one kind of movie in the front half before doing a hard swerve into darker, more threatening territory.
positive · AI labelView post →Favorite Horror Movie from each of the last 10 years? 2025 - Sinners / The Ugly Stepsister 2024 - Exhuma 2023 - Evil Dead Rise 2022 - Hatching 2021 - Censor 2020 - The Night House 2019 - Ready or Not / Saint Maud 2018 - What Keeps You Alive 2017 - Get Out 2016 - The Wailing 2015 - The Witch
positive · AI labelView post →For anyone interested in an analysis of Korean (and Japanese) shamanism as it relates to the Korean movie #Exhuma (and for that matter #kdramas like #Revenant & #MoonEmbracingtheSun), this is a terrific (& terrifying!) thread
neutral · AI labelView post →Film recap from the horror trenches, personal list, in order. 1. Exhuma. 2. When Evil Lurks. 3. The Substance. 4. Abigail. 5. Oddity.
positive · AI labelView post →My top film, just in general, of the year is either Monkey Man or Exhuma.
positive · AI labelView post →What are your top 3 horror movies of 2024 so far? The Substance Exhuma The Coffee Table Bonus: Terrifier 3 was a well needed midnight movie. Give me more sleazy gorefests in the theaters please ❤️
positive · AI labelView post →I watched Exhuma last night & I'm STILL thinking about it! I loved it so much! I was listening to a podcast talk about it, & it was interesting to hear their POV w/ no prior knowledge of Korea's history w/ Japan. Because that history is symbolised throughout the WHOLE movie (even at the beginning).
positive · AI labelView post →10 horror movies to know me by, even though I’m not a big horror movie enjoyer . The Wailing Midsommar Run Nope Svaha Exhuma Skinamarink The Ritual Predator A Quiet Place
positive · AI labelView post →Welcome back to the #hauntalong! Today I'm going to make the pitch for watching EXHUMA (2024), a Korean film about funereal practices, magic, and hauntings. (And a bit about Japan and the Korean War.) First off: one thing that elevates a horror movie is protagonists who are good at what they do.
positive · AI labelView post →So awesome to see Shudder get more love. And finally! A shout out for Exhuma! Awesome film that needs to lead into an urban fantasy TV series!
positive · AI labelView post →If not for Exhuma, it would've been the best horror film I've seen this year, and it's only May
positive · AI labelView post →Do you like Korean horror films? EXHUMA about a very messed up exorcism is one of the most successful S Korean movies of all time there after a few weeks of release, beating Dune 2. And it’s playing in a few cities in the US this weekend. Trailer here theatres below: youtu.be/lpqVbCMmqj8?...
neutral · AI labelView post →also i had to watch #Exhuma during daytime and mute + pause it a few times, but omg what an EXCELLENT movie
positive · AI labelView post →In honor of #Exhuma becoming the first Korean film of 2024 to surpass 5 million moviegoers in less than 10 days, its producers have released a special poster of its four leads #LeeDoHyun, #KimGoEun, #ChoiMinSik and #YooHaeJin.
neutral · AI labelView post →Today a friend showed me this movie, amazing horror movie without major gore or crazy stuff, just good horror Worth watching if you are in a Halloween mood Exhuma goes into one of my favorite horror movies
positive · AI labelView post →Love love love this film, and it's a crime that it hasn't gotten an English-friendly release yet. Big bonkers fun that'll appeal to fans of EXHUMA.
positive · AI labelView post →Gonna start posting reviews from this WOC-led horror list. Here’s what I had to say about Exhuma on Horror Movie Blog. horrormovieblog.com/exhuma-dead-...
neutral · AI labelView post →Exhuma is kinda goated thriller/horror movie! It's really cool seeing it navigate traditional and modern Korean occult themes.
positive · AI labelView post →My ★★★★ review of Exhuma boxd.it/7D5R4n Overstuffed South Korean chiller is like 2 films in one. Experts exhume grave to quell vengeful spirit cursing its ancestors. But wait? Could something more nefarious be waiting? EXHUMA resets after an hour. Another crisis. Terrific. #filmsky #horrorsky 📽🎬
positive · AI labelView post →It was such a trip to see a Korean film in a US theater after living in Korea for nine years. The movie (Exhuma or 파묘) was great, too, a fascinating folk horror about shamanism for wealthy clients, the feng shui of burial grounds, and the legacy of Japanese imperialism as a kind of family curse
positive · AI labelView post →Han Dong-seok's The Sin (2023, now on Tubi) is an absolutely demented film that mixes Exhuma, The Wailing, The Witch and Suspiria (Guadagnino version) in a blender and spits them all back out as very much some other kinda thang. A bit like taking The Guest (K-TV) and compacting it into two hours.
neutral · AI labelView post →For Luke, I would want to cast Lee Do-hyun entirely because of his role in one of my favorite movies, Exhuma 😂😂 he did a phenomenal job as someone who is devoted both to his work and his person, and has the same solemn air Luke would hold.
positive · AI labelView post →#YooAhIn reportedly will return in the upcoming film Vampire, directed by #JangJaeHyun (Exhuma). The team is still in the early stages of developing an original korean story, inspired by Bram Stoker's Dracula. "I want to create a vampire film set in the Russian Orthodox Church".
neutral · AI labelView post →Exhuma--a really interesting Korean film. We learn about Korean beliefs re the afterlife, shamanism to placate ancestral spirits, still carried out by modern people, eerie Japanese intermixings and oh--it's a #horror film. But it's sort of like a horror film within a horror film. Patience pays off.
positive · AI labelView post →I watched too many good movies this month. It's ridiculous. Absolutely drowning. 🎥 Standouts were Exhuma, Abigail & The Empty Man. For alt text screenshots are my film diary for November: letterboxd.com/jmkeep/films...

positive · AI labelView post →Giving Exhuma a rewatch. I feel like it's a film that I'll grow to appreciate more on each viewing
positive · AI labelView post →This was why I mentioned in my Review that #Exhuma was not simply a horror movie, but it's a love letter to Korean Mudang ritual that has survived for decades as well as a sharp critic towards Japan occupation period of Korea. Something that absolutely will be missed without these contexts.
