This reminds me of that time me & a friend promised each other that we would watch the fifth Whispering Corridors film together, only he backed out at the last minute dooming me to what felt like an eternity of solo viewing. We had A Blood Pledge, Royston Lim - and for welching, surely my disappointed corpse will come back from the underworld seeking vengeance. Incidentally, the only thing that can ward off my angry ghost is viewing the fifth entry of a South Korean all-girls high school horror name only franchise. Enjoy that grim irony you cowardly bastard.
...A Blood Pledge combines the vicious clique of Jawbreaker with the self-harming obsession of Suicide Club. Neither aspect is new to the…
Film 4/45 for Hooptober 4.0
4/6 of 6 Sequels
The ghost of a student who committed suicide at a Catholic girls school comes back to exact revenge on those who tormented her in this fifth installment of the Whispering Corridors series.
After years and years of watching Korean horror, I've learned a couple of things. The first is that those people know how to make not just a good horror movie but a good horror sequel! When you think of American horror franchises, the fifth entry of any series has usually fallen quite a long way from its origin film but in Korea they keep it tight. While this isn't the best of the series, it's surprisingly solid so my…
(5/6) Whispering Corridors Series
Sepertinya A Blood Pledge merupakan sekuel dengan plot paling aneh dan paling kacau dari Whispering Series. Entah kenapa seperti menonton film dengan imajinasi konyol yang bahkan sangat tidak masuk akal.
A Blood Pledge hadir dengan mengusung cerita tentang perjanjian kematian diantara 3 siswi perempuan yang ingin melakukan bunuh diri dan berjanji akan melakukannya secara bersama-sama disuatu malam. Tapi ternyata siswi lain yang ditemukan bunuh diri. Kecurigaan mengarah kepada 3 siswi ini. Mereka pun dihantui oleh arwah dari siswi yang ditemukan bunuh diri. Alurnya sedikit mengunakan alur maju mundur yang lumayan memusingkan.
Yap betul ide cerita film ini sedikit gila memang, tapi eksekusi ceritanya benar-benar kacau balau. Semua karakter difilm ini seolah-olah manusia "bodoh" yang tidak punya…
By far the most basic and mainstream of the franchise but goddammit I still just enjoyed the heck out of it! It’s the weakest of the 5 but still has plenty to enjoy about it.
This one completely ramps up the bitchiness, multiplies the jump scares by eleventy-stupid, and even tries to have a little fun with itself come the final act! Seriously though, the gore in this one is legitimately hilarious! A woman’s head explodes at one point 😂
I have really enjoyed bingeing through the franchise this week and I really hope this isn’t the end. I found 2 and 4 to be my favourites by far so by that logic we need a 6th to come in and steal the show again!
I can’t believe it took me this long to discover them but I’ll be recommending them left, right and centre from now on! If you haven’t seen them yet then get them watched ASAP!
Really felt the nightmare vibes on this one, a brutal way to end the series (until #6 comes out this year!)
In the fifth entry in the Korean WHISPERING CORRIDORS series,a group of teen gals at a Catholic private all-girls high school undertake the title blood pledge which opens the doorway to unleash a supernatural force that goes out to literally destroy them and take their lives. Writer/director Lee Jong-yong(best known for scriptwriting SYMPATHY FOR MR. VENGEANCE) makes A BLOOD PLEDGE a pretty unnervingly chilling film in the way the quartet's friendships are put to the test as the ghostly presence pursues after them and takes their lives one at a time,as it results in roof diving suicides that deliver gory results and gore drenched ghosts terrorizing the ladies,with Jong-yong successfully creating a believably darkened atmosphere while gaining great performances from his young nearly all-female cast as it results in A BLOOD PLEDGE being a decent Korean horror outing.
40/100
The full and correct title is Whispering Corridors 5: A Blood Pledge.
Apparently it's an South Korean horror anthology and I think I've seen one of them before, can't remember right now.
It's horror inside the box. Simple and cheap. Barely scary. Mostly dramatic.
By far the most basic and mainstream of the franchise but goddammit I still just enjoy the heck out of it! It is OTT and silly and ridiculous and all that good stuff that makes watching these flicks with an audience so fun!
This one completely ramps up the bitchiness, multiplies the jump scares by eleventy-stupid, and even tries to have a little fun with itself come the final act! Seriously though, the gore in this one is legitimately hilarious! A woman’s head explodes at one point 😂
I’m so excited to hit up number 6 tonight! It’s been 12 years since A BLOOD PLEDGE came out so it’s been a hell of a long time coming! Not sure the title THE HUMMING is particularly scary but I’m still hopeful!
The Key. The Secret.
Four high school girls make a suicide pact, which only one of them goes through with. Thereafter, the three surviving girls are haunted by their dead friend and we slowly discover the reasons for them wanting to kill themselves. We learn of parental abuse, an unexpected pregnancy and the pressures of academic expectations. Gradually, we discover the mystery of the suicide and why it was that only Eon-joo (Jang Kyung-ah) ended up dead.
With A Blood Pledge, writer and director Lee Jong-yong delivers a moody and thoughtful movie, in which the scares are secondary to the drama – and the strong emotions exhibited and secrets held by the three main girls. And another character, Jeong-eon (Yoo…
The most recent (and hopefully not final??) installment of everyone's favorite Korean high school ghost story series. A bloody great time from start to finish. More school girls, more jealousy and betrayal, more cat fights and general unpleasantness, more jump scares and actual ghosts!! It's probably the most "mainstream" of the series (not as groundbreaking at the first or as artsy as the second, etc.), and it hardly brings anything new or exciting to the table, but it's still engaging and fun. Especially when the ridiculous factor goes through the roof about halfway through.
