Goedam

Goedam in English is urban ghost stories and this series is an anthology of horror stories each episode being short and showcases different horror styles. I found some of them scarier then others and some quite gruesome but as they were all short it did not matter as you were soon into the next episode and style. Some of the legends are quite dark and the monsters even in the episodes I was less impressed with are memorable. An interesting point I have read is that if you watch them in reverse order they are connected, although to be fair I am not sure if this is just another urban legend. Overall an ok watch for a lightweight horror fan like me.

Its like, you just think what kind of cliche asian horror you ever know, create some random situation, put the ghost or whatsoever at the ending. You just create a random horror. Its like 5 minute by the way, what you gonna do?

Short horror movies, each movie is between 8 to 15 minutes maximum. It's basically like a trailer, you will not know what is the real story of each movie. But it's ok to watch and use your imagination.

An anthology of eight short (10 minute-ish) supernatural Korean horror flicks, which is right up my alley. Netflix presented this as eight episodes, but it's not laid out like a television series-- really, it's just an anthology horror movie, divided into parts. No connection between stories, no interstitial.

The stories themselves are low on ambience, low on mood building, big instead on, "Here's a ghost, watch it kill somebody." There's plenty of blood and some moderately disturbing violence. Heavy on special effects, which are dodgy at times. In my opinion, the stories improve as they go, with my favorite being the sixth, "Dimension."

Nothing in the way of ambiguity, other than the details elided to fit into the short blocks of running time. For me, that's a minus, but I'm sure there are some for whom it's a plus. Appropriate popcorn fare as long as you don't expect much from it.

I enjoyed the concept of short 7-10 minute stories, and i'd love to see more. I can see why many people didn't like it but i thought it was more interesting and left me thinking about the stories more. Would a series that covers one scary story at a time be nice? Yes it would but things like American Horror Story exist. It's a creative concept that i haven't seen much of before in the scary/horror community. When you have a spare 15 minutes it's great to just put it on and watch before you go out or go to sleep. That's a good thing about the short episodes, they are easier to finish if you have a busy schedule. The stories are very creative too, i enjoyed them a lot. I definitely recommend to people who like short horror stories (especially creative ones), you will enjoy this!!
