Moving from the small screen to the big this summer is The Cursed, the occult-themed TV drama that debuted on tvN last year. The feature film spinoff The Cursed: Dead Man’s Prey brings back writer Yeon Sangho, known around the world for helming the zombie hit Train to Busan (2016), director Kim Yongwan, who previously made Champion (2018), and lead actresses Uhm Jiwon, seen in The Silenced (2015) and The Odd Family: Zombie on Sale (2019), and Jeong Jiso, who first drew notice in Bong Joonho’s Parasite (2019). Also returning are supporting stars Kim Inkwon and Ko Gyupil, while new characters are played by Kwon Haehyo and Cho Hancheol.
Viewers not familiar with the original series need not fear, as the theatrical follow-up explores a new story with investigative reporter Im Jinhee (Uhm Jiwon), as she becomes embroiled in a strange series of murders which are seemingly perpetrated by grey hoody-wearing corpses, who expire after committing their murders. As she gets deeper into the case, she discovers a connection with a corporation, the executive board of which are now fearing for their lives. Meanwhile, Sojin, who left to explore the meaning of her powers at the issue of the first season, eventually returns to give Jinhee a supernatural hand.
