Whispering Corridors

Whispering Corridors is a 1998 Korean horror movie, the first in a series. This is more sad than scary. Schools are damaging places.

trailer:




HorrorNews.net calls it "a must". Classic-Horror.com says, "when the film is good, it’s really, really good" and credits the director while finding fault with the story itself.

I've also watched Voice (2005), which is 4th of the 5 films in the series.

The Husband is on vacation and is watching some old monster movies with me to celebrate the October/Halloween season. I rarely re-blog movies I've already seen, but I do have blog posts on these we've watched since my last update on our ongoing marathon:

King Kong (1933)
The Mummy (1932)

    1. Yes, he just can't sit through anything with blood or startling scenes. I like his choices, though :)

  2. I actually got a chance to see the original King Kong on tv a few months back. To me, it was not scary, but very sad. I felt for Kong.

    Yes, schools are really damaging. They harbor bullies, albeit they take a back seat to some internet bullies, and they harbor children wanting to kill other children.

    1. King Kong is a sad story. If they'd left him on his island he'd have lived, but I felt sorry for the generations of natives sacrificed to him. There aren't any good guys in that movie.

    1. I have developed a taste for Asian horror films. There's often less in the way of "horror" as I think of it and more in the way of tragic personal story.

  4. This sounds creepy. The last few years I was teaching was horror, too! Valerie

    1. It's a shame schools are as hard on kids as they are :(
