Tunnel ★☆☆☆☆
The first short story ended, before it even started. It's hard to have any meaningful opinion or thoughts about it with how short it was. Sure, there was one nice semi-gory picture created closer to the end, but overall - too short to create the atmosphere or to deliver the scares.
The Woman in Red ★☆☆☆☆
Revengeful ghost and vague insinuation on why she even mad. What stood out in this short? Bad acting and bad special effects. When the ghost started to do Spiderman impersonation, I lost it.
Tooth Worms ★★★☆☆
I knew this is going to be a ride the moment they opened it with the perspective of being in someone's mouth as they get check up by hot dentist Hoya. I'm not sure how scary it was, but it did make me feel extremely uncomfortable. Acting wise - Hoya delivered!
Necromancy ★★☆☆☆
This story was more of what I was expecting to see when I started Seoul Ghost Stories - typical creepy pasta type of a deal, with decent effects for a short like that. the acting was also fine.
The Wall ★★★☆☆
That was a short, fun and wacky story. A unique love line if anyone asks me.
The Closet ★★★☆☆
This is scary because of the more realistic scenario. I do wish they were a little bit more clear if there was any supernatural involvement, but nevertheless, this still gave me the most creeps. A bit exaggerated, but something that could potentially happen.
Ghost Marriage ★☆☆☆☆
When horror stories deliver shower abs scenes - I cannot force myself to complain. Sadly, that was the best part of the story.
The Girl in the Mirror ★☆☆☆☆
When you are hunted by the horror snapshot filters, even outside of the app. That's the story. Yes, it's as boring as it sounds.
The Mannequin ★★★☆☆
This was a win. They were able to built quite a tension in just few minutes and the design for the mannequin was extremely good. It just looked so weird and uncanny - and the movement. I would pee my pants if I ever come across something like that.
Escape Games ★★★☆☆
I'm impressed with Alexa's acting (funny how her Korean line delivery was more natural than the English one) and the props aka the bodies. Good stuff. Probably best practical and special effects from all the stories. The concept was not exactly unique - Escape Room meets occultists. Still, a fun watch. Better than majority of the stories in this compilation.
The starts next to the title will tell you how good they are compared to each other, rather than overall quality.

Introductory video, that's it.
I understand that it is a compilation of short stories but if being short takes away the reason and fun out of it, then it just becomes time waste.There were some stories that were getting good but stopped in the middle and others are just a miss.
Tunnel
I could guess it from a mile away, there was nothing new, not in terms of story nor presentation or screen writing.
The Woman in Red
Would have been a good story if we could understand the motivation behind it. I actually liked the creepiness and the oblivious attitude of the lead. For a period she behaved like being followed in such a creepy manner was no big deal.
Tooth Worms
Best one of this lot. I won't say much but this certainly will tickle your horror bones. The execution was really good even after it squeezed into 12 mins
Necromancy
Not bad. Not good. Just average. This story had so soo much potential
The Wall
Unexplainee over unexplained. The misdirection was great but way too short for this story to soar it's wings.
The Closet
The closest to practical of this bunch but eould have liked it if it was clearer whether it was a paranormal story or not.
Ghost marriage
This was cute. Even though the title serves the whole story but the execution was really well done.
The snapshot filters
Why was this story given a place in the movie? Waste of screentime. Bring your popcorn for the next one while this is playing
The Mannequin
We came for creepy, we got creepy.
Goosebumps till now.
Escape Games
Again, this one was a good story to end on. Escape room on pretence of darker secrets. Dark and I like it.
I would give a 0 to rewatch value coz really even if some are good. None of them ate memorable enough for you to go back again.
