The Wrath
Directed by Young-sun Yoo
In this supernatural creeper set in 14th century Korea, a curse is killing the sons of the kingdom’s highest-ranking official. When the final son dies, his pregnant widow, Ok-bun, must face vicious family politics and the vengeful spirit descending on the household. A remake of 1986 Korean horror essential, Woman’s Wail, The Wrath is elegant horror with funhouse chills. A SHUDDER ORIGINAL.
In 14th Century Korea, a pregnant widow faces a vengeful spirit.

Enjoyable. Visually striking and loved the era. Found the ending annoying, though. Hence 4 skulls.
A good movie to watch,.
If you're going to steal, steal from the best. This adage is something The Wrath uses to great effect. Whilst the movie is mostly a mash-up of The Evil Dead and Netflix's Kingdom, the film makers also borrow from classics like The Grudge and The Ring. The ending falls a little flat. Despite this, however, the refreshing blend of trashy soap opera, gonzo scares, and gripping period drama elevate The Wrath above most supernatural horror outings.
