The Possessed

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.

Almost like watching the ABC's of death but shorter and less interesting. Some stories are cool, some are just the usual and a few bizzare ones that need more explaining. My favorite was the dimensional elevator one. Would have made cool movie I think.

Short bite-sized horror stories, it only consists of 8 eps with 7-15 mins per episode. Would've loved it a bit more if i knew a bit more about Korean urban legends. Only if the makers could have made an effort to give a a short explanation at the beginning of each episode (as did episode 8), would definitely clarify the plot for the wider audience. It's well done with solid CGI and gory fun. It's heavy on atmosphere and light on explaining itself. For those looking for fast and cheap thrills, this will be a feast. But for arthouse horror fans this might be a disappointing watch. The series is rich in style and atmosphere it has the look and feel of an high budget horror, yet unlike many of those kind that offered style over substance, it has an eerie story to support the murky atmosphere that will draw you in. Add this to your watchlist as a cure for a lazy weekend.

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.

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!!
