They said The Wailing reminded them of films such as The Exorcist, The Ring and Seven.
The Korean supernatural horror movie The Wailing made waves last year as yet another fantastic K-horror by a talented director to make its way overseas, so its no wonder an American remake is being discussed.
Hollywood versions of Korean and Japanese horror movies have at times done incredibly well here — take The Ring, for example.
If you haven’t seen the original yet and are interested (and you should be), The Wailing is currently available to stream on Netflix.
