The South Korean horror series 'Revenant,' now streaming on Disney+, builds a steady (and stylish) sense of dread that will keep you on edge
’s latest South Korean drama opens as Professor Gu Kang-mo hurries through his front door, past shelves piled with books, and barricades himself in the study. “What went wrong?” he asks himself, flipping through his notes. Behind him, visible through paper windows, flashes of lightning illuminate a shadowy figure — its hair writhing in a wide halo like snakes.
Moments later, Gu is dead and we cut to what appears to be an unrelated scene. Rushing from the light of a train station, San-yeong steps into a still Seoul night, surrounded by murmuring voices, and climbs onto the railing of a bridge. Below which, folklore professor Yeom Hae-sang drinks beer and discusses suicide with a young man in school uniform.
All three of these characters are linked, in spirit if not currently in time. It’s not until the spirit haunting Gu passes to his daughter, San-yeong, that she even meets Yeom — at which point, we start asking what the taciturn professor is hiding. How many of Gu’s actions were his own? Most of all, we’re left asking whether the spirits that flutter through each episode are frightening at all or simply a window into more relatable horrors.
