Director Hong-jin Na makes a welcome return to the dark side of cinema with his critically acclaimed The Wailing… and courtesy of Kaleidoscope Home Entertainment, UK horror fans will get to see what all the fuss is about when it hits DVD on January 30, 2017. If it’s anywhere near as intense as the director’s stupendous 2008 serial killer flick The Chaser then count us in!

The Wailing stars Do Won Kwak (The Man from Nowhere), Jung-min Hwang (Fists of Legend), Hwan-hee Kim (in her feature debut) and Jun Kunimura (Audition).

Synopsis:
Out of his depth, local police officer Jong-goo investigates a spate of killings, as well as an outbreak of madness seemingly connected to the recent arrival of a mysterious Japanese man who resides in the outskirts of the village. What’s more, he is horrified to discover his young daughter may have fallen under the stranger’s curse.

Jong-goo calls on a charismatic shaman to free his daughter from the stranger’s dangerous influence, but the shaman’s intense exorcism ritual threatens to worsen the situation… and Jong-goo, with his world collapsing around him, realises he must confront the ultimate evil.
