Yoga

The story, about a group of women signing up for an intensive yoga class in the hope that it will make them more beautiful than they already are, is silly and the acting, for the most part, is awful. So why should you watch this film from director Jae-yeon Yun? Because it will scare the crap out of you. It’s not just the startling visual imagery of the film, although after you watch it you will have a hard time getting to sleep and not dream of having a poisonous black snake crawl in your mouth. The true terror of the film comes from the way the director paces the story to build the tension from the minute the women sign up for the class to the final scenes where one of them gets her wish to be beautiful forever.
