"CRITIC'S PICK: Echoes of The Exorcist... as the suspense, violence, and worse ratched up, I was not merely scared, but heartbroken." --The New York Times "What makes THE WAILING so unusually disturbing is the almost palpable aura of evil it radiates from calm start to sorrowful finish." --Los Angeles Times "A bone-chilling, thunderous descent into hell" --Twitch Review: Great Asian Horror - Incredible film. Truly thought provoking and horrifying Review: Don't fret, it has subtitles. - The bad reviews are for a previous digital release of this movie. Subtitles have been added and all has been righted. The blu-ray has had subtitles from the get go. I wish some of those people would update their reviews (or desertcart wouldn't lump all reviews together for different versions of the same movie) as this movie deserves a much higher score. The blu-ray is a bit barebones, but it is otherwise a perfectly good release of the movie. If I see the scores balance out I might drop my review a bit, because a movie this good really does deserve more special features. As far as the movie itself (outside of the physical product of the blu-ray), it is a masterpiece of horror well deserving of the acclaim it has received on the film festival circuit. Horror has seen a resurgence in the US, but few of those recent releases display half the nuance and writing chops displayed in Na Hong-jin's The Wailing. Korean directors have demonstrated a strong flair for genre pictures for several years now (The Host, Mother, I Saw the Devil, Snowpiercer), and now with films like The Wailing they're giving Hollywood a serious run for its money on production value. This is a gorgeous movie at all levels. The video and sound are both top notch, and the acting is superb. This is a movie that will revolutionize genre film-making in Korea, and I can't wait to see what other goodies we get from the peninsula in the next few years. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Contributor | Hwang Jung Min, Kunimura Jun, Kwak Do Won, Na Hong Jin | | Customer Reviews | 4.6 out of 5 stars 694 Reviews | | Format | Dolby, NTSC, Subtitled, THX, Widescreen | | Genre | Horror | | Language | Korean | | Runtime | 2 hours and 36 minutes | ## Product Details - **Genre:** Horror/Supernatural - **Format:** Subtitled, Widescreen, NTSC, Dolby, THX - **Contributor:** Na Hong Jin, Kunimura Jun, Kwak Do Won, Hwang Jung Min - **Language:** Korean - **Runtime:** 2 hours and 36 minutes ## Images ![The Wailing - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71tSlyJuAbL.jpg) ![The Wailing - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81GtxzzqZ2L.jpg) ![The Wailing - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51eZxMtOP3L.jpg) ![The Wailing - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51KffAR8nZL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great Asian Horror *by C***N on January 25, 2026* Incredible film.

I live in a Little Red Dot called Singapore where Korean movies and TV dramas are very popular. Yet, I couldn't find this DVD at DVD shops. I read a newspaper review of the movie and wanted to see it but work commitments got in the way and I missed it. When it comes to horror movies, Korean horror takes a backseat to Japanese horror. The Wailing is one of the better Korean horror movies. Briefly, the story is about a police officer who is called to investigate a series of murders in a rural community. The victims have their bodies mutilated. Plenty of gore for horror fans who want to see a bloody mess. There is a suspect - an old Japanese man who lives alone in the village. The suspicion is later shifted to a strange young woman who is thought to be a witch. So, is it the old Japanese or the young woman? A shaman is called to exorcise whatever demons that are believed to have been unleashed upon the villagers. He's no angel. I will stop here to avoid giving a spoiler. There's an air of mystery over the murders and how these were committed. I like the rural setting. There are creepy moments but, despite the gory scenes, this movie didn't scare the daylights out of me like the Ju-On movies from Japan did. Americans should give this movie a try - get a feel of rural Korea and Korean horror. Want to see something Korean that is really scary? It's not the demon in this movie. The scary one was in my country on 12 June where he shook hands with President Trump. ## Frequently Bought Together - The Wailing - I Saw the Devil - Train to Busan / Train to Busan Presents: Peninsula 2-Movie Collection --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.pt/products/38853905-the-wailing](https://www.desertcart.pt/products/38853905-the-wailing) --- *Product available on Desertcart Portugal* *Store origin: PT* *Last updated: 2026-06-19*
