An anthology consisting of three horror shorts from different Asian directors: Memories by Kim Jee-woon, The Wheel by Nonzee Nimibutr, and Going Home by Peter Chan.

Why it matters

Three delivers a rare cross-section of early-2000s Asian horror that blends psychological dread, supernatural folklore, and emotional tension in one unsettling anthology.

  • Kim Jee-woon’s “Memories” sets a high bar with its claustrophobic tension and stylish direction, a precursor to his later genre work.
  • Nonzee Nimibutr’s “The Wheel” channels Thai folk horror, weaving myth and atmosphere into a quietly haunting tale.
  • Peter Chan’s “Going Home” offers a poignant, ghostly meditation on loss that resists cheap scares for genuine emotional weight.
  • Essential for fans tracking the emergence of Asian horror auteurs who reshaped global genre cinema in the 2000s.
