The 2016 South Korean horror film "The Wailing," directed by award-winning filmmaker Na Hong Jin, is undoubtedly one of the best horror films ever released in the film industry up to this writing.
"The Wailing" follows the story of a policeman who is determined to conduct an investigation regarding the mysterious serial killings and illnesses in a Korean village, after his only daughter catches the same sickness.
Thanks to Hwang Jung Min, Kwak Do Won and Chu Woo Hee's brilliant acting performances, the film will surely go down in history.
Here's what's new from the cast, six years laters, to anticipate this year!
