GOKDU;spreads its wings2026

Horror Vault's take

When a man with the lifelong ability to see the dead inherits his estranged father's sacred role as a Kokdu — a ritual guardian of departing souls — he is plunged into a world of ancient ceremony and unresolved grief he has always tried to escape. A mysterious death, a charred funeral bier, and a decades-old betrayal pull him toward a reckoning he cannot outrun. Rooted in Korean funerary tradition, the film weaves folklore and spectral dread into a deeply personal story about the weight we carry from those who came before us.
