DISAPPOINTED!! :(
Since it is a spin off of "THE PRIESTS" movie, which is one of my fav horrors, I expected this movie to be as good as that but DISAPPOINTED!!
Theme is same for both movies -- Two Priests trying to save a Possessed Gal by performing exorcism there and the same here but Two Nuns and One Possessed Boy.
Wanted to see Song Hye Kyo in a different role like this -- A Nun perfoming exorcism but unimpressive :(
*** WHAT I DIDN'T LIKE:
Interesting in the beginning of the movie but it got completely CLUELESS, No Clarity of what is happening for almost 3/4th of the movie.
Building the background to the Story (perform exorcism to save the possessed) itself took more than half of the movie and made me think of dropping it
(but didn't bcz of my "Watching Tradition" -- Not to drop a movie/drama, once I start watching).
Pacing is Super Slow -- A Test to my patience !! :(
That constant struggle to understand what is happening in the movie and its lack of capturing the interest, actually made me irritated.
Usually, I enjoy any type of Horror works, until unless it is very bad and unfortunately, this is one of them :/
*** WHAT I LIKED :
Loved the blend of religions -- Christianity Exorcism n Shaman Rituals.
Perfoming both rituals together to save the possessed, only those scenes in the last 20-30 mins of the movie are Superb.
(Out of those 30 mins, some exorcism scenes too, are slow n unimpressive at times but not very bad, just tolerable :/ ).
Possessed Boy - his Acting n Makeup are VERY GOOD
There is a reference of the priests from the parent movie and there is a cameo of
Dong Won from the parent movie.
*** RATING:
Since I love horror movies, usually my rating will be 7+, unless the movie is very bad or uninteresting.
This is just 6 / 10.
Whoever watches this movie first n not the parent story ("THE PRIESTS"), might enjoy n find this interesting but not the other way.
Just a One Time Watch!
