Here's a list of Korean horror movies to stream this very night: 

1. The Call (2020) 

Park Shin Hye and Jeon Jong Seo's performances in this movie are seriously A+! In The Call, a young woman discovers that she can communicate with a girl who's staying in the same house...but the girl in question is actually speaking to her FROM 20 YEARS AGO. Warning: Prepare for *some* gory blood on your screen.

5. Train To Busan (2016) 

Since we're on the topic of the undead...this Gong Yoo film will forever stay in our hearts as one of the most intense zombie stories out there! A dad and his daughter board a train to the countryside, and a zombie outbreak happens simultaneously.

6. Peninsula (2020) 

Yup, the Train To Busan sequel is now on Netflix! Set several years after the zombies first attacked, a former soldier returns to South Korea and gets involved with a family of survivors. Not gonna lie, the first movie is still the best, but give this movie a try if you wanna know what happens to the Train To Busan ~universe~.
