Bewitched
蠱
While possessed by an evil spirit, a man murders his daughter. A police detective investigating the case also becomes possessed. A good monk helps fight the evil spirit.
Why it matters
A grim dive into possession horror that blends supernatural dread with a procedural edge, Bewitched (1981) channels early ’80s fascination with evil spirits and exorcism rituals.
- Raw practical effects and tense atmosphere evoke the era’s obsession with demonic possession before CGI took over.
- A rare Korean entry into the possession subgenre, offering a fresh cultural perspective on exorcism and spiritual warfare.
- The narrative’s grim family tragedy adds emotional weight beneath the supernatural horror.
- Fans of slow-burn spiritual dread and vintage possession tales will find this a rewarding, if uneven, cult curiosity.
