The feel-good part

In-depth analysis
The movie revolves around a father and a daughter who ha shifted to a new apartment. They have not given proper reasons for many things like what was the reason for a strained relationship between the father and a daughter, why did the ghost took the kid to a special world. The father was unable to come and he was not prepare to be a single parent and raise a child. The daughter was lonely but she didn’t hated her father. Being a horror movie it didn’t had enough scary scenes. The leading aspect of the movie don’t match. On one side it is a psychological drama about child abuse and on the other side it was a ghost investigation with a few comedy bits. At least one the two aspects could be used to its fullest. Ha Jun Woo and Kim Nam Gil proved their versatility by paying these roles.
Star power
Heo Yool portraying Yi Na was a master child actor. The scene where she was watching her mother’s video has so well acted. Shin Ah was on another level. The actors really did great in making the movie success. Kim Nam Gil’s role made a new perspective of an exorcist.
Overall opinion
The movie is more than just a horror film to watch. It is a short and fun movie to watch. It is a script with holes in it that makes you excited and a poltergeist.
