[6.25/10] Gonjiam: Haunted Asylum (2018)

Gonjiam: Haunted Asylum (2018)

Quick Review: The entire set-up feels very familiar, as it's been done before, and it takes about half of the running time for the film to warm up and start to deliver the scares, but at the end "Gonjiam" ends up being creepy and effective enough to be considered a solid 'found footage' flick, as it manage to fully utilize its eerie abandoned hospital location, and become pretty frightening in its final act, when the characters enter the twisted 'Room 402'.

Darn it, it's found footage? I have a hard time sitting through those. All the motion makes me sick after a while.

Just saw this one today. Damn, that last act caught me off guard. The lack of explanation just made it all creepy!

Kaijinu, yes, the last act was ominous as hell.
