Gonjiam: Haunted Asylum
Like many found footage, live YouTube stream, bunch of meddling kids getting into no good films this one also starts off as total CHEESE. Butttt you have to expect that for these types of movies at least for a little. I cannot emphasize enough to WATCH UNTIL THE END. The ending was so good! I promise it is worth it. The girl making all the slurpy sounds in the woods?? The creepy naked dude with terrible posture and questionable bone structure?? Korean horror gives a whole different type of chill. This has to be one of my favorite found footage films because of that. It chills more to the bone than American found footage for me. Like it’s creepier. Overall, I think this film is very overlooked! It checked all the boxes for me. Spooky setting with twisted history (this didn’t always used to be an “asylum”…), things you see on a video camera screen but disappears when you look in real life, freaky film as a whole. What’s not to like?
