Calling all horror enthusiasts and the easily frightened alike! The record-shattering Korean supernatural thriller “Exhuma,” starring Kim Go Eun and Lee Do Hyun, is taking an innovative step to ensure everyone gets to experience its chills and thrills.
Exhuma has been a phenomenon since its release. It recently surpassed the box office success of the Oscar-winning Parasite in Indonesia, becoming the highest-grossing Korean film there in the past four years. This chilling tale has also secured its place as the best-selling Korean movie of 2024 so far.
But what about those who love a good story but scare easily? “Exhuma” understands your fear! To make the haunting experience more accessible, CGV, the biggest theater chain in Korea, is hosting special “courageous screenings” designed specifically for viewers who are a little spooked by horror movies.
These special screenings will take place on March 24th at four different CGV locations in Seoul. To ease anxious minds, attendees will be provided with noise-canceling earplugs – perfect for blocking out some of the more unnerving sound effects. They’ll also receive temporary tattoos inspired by those sported by Lee Do Hyun’s character in the film, adding a touch of fun to the spooky experience.
The best part? Tickets for these courageous screenings are priced the same as regular screenings. The only difference is that interested viewers need to apply through CGV’s website to secure their spot. This unique marketing strategy shows “Exhuma’s” commitment to ensuring a thrilling experience for everyone, regardless of their fear factor.
So, if you’ve been curious about “Exhuma” but the horror genre usually leaves you hiding under the covers, this is your chance to peek into the world of the film in a more comfortable setting.
