South Korean blockbuster Exhuma is getting released in India on May 3, leading international and indie film distributor Impact Films announced on Monday.
Directed by Jang Jae-Hyun, the film features popular Korean actors Choi Min-Sik, Kim Go-Eun, Yoo Hai-Jin and Lee Do-Hyun. It premiered at the 74th Berlin International Film Festival in February.
The distributors also shared the official Indian trailer of the supernatural horror film. “You all understand..what happens if we mess with the wrong grave. An enthralling, unique exploration of intergenerational curses, national history & spectral hauntings. #Exhuma releasing in Indian Cinemas 3rd May. Launching the official Indian trailer,” Impact Films wrote on social media.
The one-minute-40-second long trailer revolves around a celebrated shaman (played by Kim Go-Eun) and her apprentice (played by Lee Do-hyun) hired by a wealthy family to investigate a troubling supernatural ailment afflicting the eldest children of each generation. Teaming up with a knowledgeable mortician (played by Yoo Hai-jin) and a revered geomancer (played by Choi Min-sik), they trace the source of the affliction to a long-concealed family tomb on hallowed ground.
Sensing a foreboding presence surrounding the burial site, the team decides to unearth and relocate the ancestral remains promptly. However, they soon uncover something far more sinister and learn the dire consequences awaiting those who tamper with the gravesite.
