Review of The Wailing (2016) by Iván V — 20 Apr 2017
Despite very good performances and obviously sincere direction, this Korean ghost thriller outstays its welcome at 150 long minutes. As much a meditation on fear of 'the other' and the seeds of illogical hysteria, the movie is compromised by a tangible self-importance and lack of clarity.
