Audience Member The movie, the wig, was a movie about a woman who got a wig, the twist is, however, that the wig is haunted. A fucking terrible movie with an awful dialogue and semi-ok cinematography, Would not recommend to people with a mind Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 02/16/23 Full Review Audience Member The shittest movie i've seenin my life Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 02/12/23 Full Review Audience Member It was actually good and kind of scary but got confusing towards the end but I guess it was just me I have to watch it again. But im giving it 3 stars. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/26/23 Full Review Audience Member Average ghost story....this is basically just a rehash of earlier and better Asian movies and for those who have seen a lot of Korean and Japanese cinema will probably agree with that...... nothing special, feels like someone saw "A Tale of Two Sisters" before coming up with the idea for this film..... Rated 2 out of 5 stars 02/10/23 Full Review Audience Member Supernatural Korean horror with an interesting premise about a possessed wig which starts to bring about unusual physical and personality changes to its new wearer who's suffering from terminal cancer. It's all nice and elegantly styled but the film moves too slowly during the middle parts and too much drama is added to the mix. It gets off to a good start with some genuinely creepy moments and a couple of well mounted scares, but it makes little effort to pack in anymore effectively eerie moments during the rest of the film. Surprisingly there a couple of quite nasty violent moments that'll make your eyes wince. The plot also throws in an unexpected twist at the end that's worth waiting for, but some of the editiing throughout could have been better handled as it feels a bit rushed, especially during the flashback sequences. It's a film that's better than many other supernatural asian horrors out there but it's not quite up with the best of them, it had potential though. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/24/23 Full Review Audience Member For a movie about a haunted hair-piece, The Wig sure does spring a pleasant surprise Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/09/23 Full Review Read all reviews
