One of my favorite horror movies. It’s also chock full of South Korean myth references. If you liked The Witch, you’ll love this movie.

I meant to include this in OP. It has a lot of SK and east Asian mythology included, like most Japanese/Korean horror, but this one actually is very accessible to the West by including Catholic/Christianity directly into the movie. It makes some of the underlying issues much more palatable.

Its better than The Witch, which is a little too abstruse.
The Wailing is what horror should be about.
See also The Orphanage, Sinister, Goodnight Mommy, Kairo, etc.
