The Wailing: A Haunting Blend of Horror and Mystery
In the realm of detective and horror stories, there exists an invisible threshold of absurdity that, once crossed, challenges the audience's ability to suspend disbelief. "The Wailing," a South Korean horror-mystery hybrid, dares to venture beyond this line on multiple occasions, yet manages to maintain a haunting atmosphere that keeps viewers engaged. It may seem like an impossible task, given the bumbling nature of Sergeant Jong-gu (played by Do Won Kwak) throughout his investigation into the mysterious series of infections and deaths plaguing the village of Gokseong. Jong-gu's actions may often frustrate and perplex, but director Hong-jin Na ("The Yellow Sea," "The Chaser") skillfully avoids overindulgence, delivering a relentless onslaught of major plot developments rather than small melodramatic ones. The film's perpetually rainy and mud-soaked setting adds to its intense ambience, as Na fearlessly bombards audiences with shock tactics. Despite the occasional moments of incredulity, "The Wailing" ultimately culminates in a satisfyingly enigmatic conclusion that justifies the film's cacophonous journey. However, it must be reiterated: "The Wailing" can be undeniably foolish at times.

Reed Alexander's Horror Review of 'Dog Soldiers' (2002)
Why the fuck does this movie look like it was shot in the 80s? Was it intentional? Was the budget so low that they shot on fucking VHS camcorders? Should I treat this movie like a shoe stringer? The cinematography just isn't very good. It's almost 'shakey camera' bad. Not as bad as The Taking of Deborah Logan (2014), but honestly pretty bad. Now, it kinda helps the atmosphere. You can't quite ever see what's going on, so it helps shroud the rubber monsters in shadow and gives them a nice effect. However, it also makes the movie bloody difficult to watch. It's a bit of an eye strain just to see what's going on. The presentation frankly isn't very good.
