I’m unfortunately not surprised by a major film studio not properly backing a film with two Asian leads. No promotion, nothing. Just a theater dump. Sandra deserves better.
It has everything that any daughter might dread, her mama,the ever ending fear of disappointing your mother even in death. And a creepy ghost hunting her and a freaky Korean Kumiho/Japanese kitsune. Which unsurprisingly is repeated again in every generation to come.
I'm not, but whew 😓 the chills I got from this, hoping the bad things die with the dead, and this movie clearly says otherwise -- they even have a 9-tailed fox in this. I'm sh!itting bricks.
I’m always down for family trauma mixed with the supernatural. It’s as scary as any curse, but more heartbreaking and relatable. Sandra is amazing and I’m hype for this!
Sandra Oh is just absolutely killing it! Every single project she's done since she left Greys has been so good it's almost unbelieveable! Not a scary movie fan myself but I'm hoping I like this too!
When Sandra quit Grey's Anatomy, I was like, "Girl, why do you want to throw away your meal ticket?". I know it's hard for Asians to get main or big roles but man, was I wrong. She has been blazing away ever since. Good for her. She's a great actress. I wish her the best.

This is a very very well done movie. There's not a big cast, but all the few characters really give out a great show. My girlfriend (and me too :) jumped more than 3 times. OMG, the timing was impeccable. I actually cried too.
In our Indian hindu traditions, we have a similar thing, called "Pitar Paksh". It's a few days ceremony, where we bathe in our holy rivers and offer food and certain other things to our dead ancestors so that they always look after us. It's believed that the spirits of our ancestors come down on earth to see us, and are nearby during this festival.

@@jamesshin5087 for real. And let's just toss on the geriatric Sandra Oh. That'll bring in EVERYONE.... (That watched grey's anatomy). Could've cast any number of other actresses. Yet we get another movie with starring another has-been.
Saw this yesterday. Pretty good movie overall. It's not scary but more of a thriller. If you're one of those anti-horror ppl, you can definitely make it through this one. Oh and the actress that played Amanda (the mom) is fine af 🤷🏾♂️
me and my friends might go see a movie and this one seems like it'd be good but one of my friends is like terrified of horror movies so do u think this is too much lol
Man. Between this and "Everything, Everywhere, All at Once" and two of my favorite Asian actresses, Sandra Oh and Michelle Yoeh, I'm absolutely pumped.
If they ever do a sequel to the Joy Luck Club, should they bring Sandra Oh, Michelle Yeoh, Grace Park, Constance Wu, Harry Shum Jr. And Randall Park into it?
Sandra Oh is that one actress people shouldn't be sleeping on. She was phenomenal in Grey's Anatomy, she was my favorite. And this movie looks like it's going to be 🔥 can't wait.
Tried to show something extraordinary in the sense of horror and creepy. Delighted to get this trailer at the right time it needs more recognition right away.
man i’ve known about this movie for over a year and i really thought it wasn’t going to be this good because of the lack of advertisement. i’m so excited but i wish there were sooner updates. this movie was probably filmed late 2020
@@pika2031 I'm American and unfortunately I have to agree with you. The Asian countries and France are where the real interesting horror movies come from. This looks very generic to me.
This thing is very real in asians. We pay heavy respects and offer feasts to our dead ancestors every year. Im an Indian and this day is huge for everyone. Each family pays tribute to their family tree and people who have deceased. Meals are made..their favourite food is then offered to crows and we all wait patiently till crow eats something. The moment the crows eats something we dont look back. Considering that once again we are blessed by lost souls. Its a hugeeee day!! If we hurt or do anything wrong during the process…we are expected bad news or bad accidents. There are times when some families dont pay respects to dead souls and within a month the family members go through extremely difficult times. So again to calm those souls down..we do different rituals.
Quite impressed with this movie. It's very good. Only problem is the picture is so dark most of the time I can't see any faces or anything even with the blinds all closed in the house. Wish there was a little more lighting to it to the night time scenes so I can see what's going on
Sony Pictures is absolutely killing it. I wonder if this is because they are the only major studio without a streaming service, so they are laser focused on their theatrical productions.
I wonder how they're going to make that scary cause foxes are cute & cuddly critters and not scary. Yes I'm aware of magical abilities that Asian fox spirits have and how vicious real life foxes can be. I'm just curious how they're going to make a cute animal into your worst nightmare?
The fact that I only know this movie exists because of a meme on Instagram is actually insane considering I've watched the majority of Sandra's work. I'm so mad this got like no promo
Wow! Went in the movie theater expecting a disappointing movie. But no it was super good in my opinion! Story was well done, wish there were more flashbacks tho.
Nine-tailed fox seem to be reoccurring in Asian cultures in terms of mythology. In Japan they call them Kitsune. China they’re called “Fox spirits” Vietnam calls them Ho Tinh/“Terrifying fox spirit”. And here in “Umma” they are called Kumiho in Korea. Shown in 2:10
I expected it to be much better. I was disappointed, though I did like how dark it was in several scenes to give us the feeling of what they could and couldn't see.
Knowing that Sam Raimi is Producing, it has the Production Banner of his new Studio, Raimi Productions instead of Ghost House Pictures and Renaissance Pictures both companies best known for Darkman, Evil Dead and the Hercules and Xena TV Series.
It's good to see a lot of Korean myths in this. I see a 9 tailed fox too. Been a fan of Sandra Oh since she played Principal Gupta in the Princess Diaries :)
It's too bad this movie was marketed as a horror. A lot of people are going to feel lied to when they see this. It's a family drama with supernatural elements and a couple of jump scares. No gore, no deaths. I liked it for what it actually was, but the marketing team has set themselves up to getting really poor reviews when people realize they've been duped and go online to vent their frustrations. People are going to spend actual money thinking they're getting something they are definitely not going to get. I don't know why Hollywood needs to lie to get people in the seats.
Not to mention Sam Raimi being attached to the film. I’m a fricking scaredy cat and I actually want to start watching more horror movies because of amazing concepts like this lol It looks awesome and I also love its ties to Korean culture
Sandra's dad in this movie is not Korean. lol. I noticed because he was speaking broken Korean. I am wondering if they could not find an actual Korean man to play her dad?

To me, Sandra Oh came a long way ever since my childhood movie Big, Fat, Liar.
