Horror film fans say 'haunting' movie is 'one of the best' they've ever seen
The Wailing is a Korean horror movie that has been dubbed one of the best in the genre by fans who claimed it "stayed with them" long after the credits had rolled Fans claim this spine-chilling horror film is one that "stays with you" long after the credits roll, and its box office success certainly attests to that. The Wailing, a Korean horror flick, revolves around a policeman probing a series of peculiar deaths and sudden illnesses in a secluded town. The strange epidemic has led villagers to lose their sanity, murder their loved ones, and now, his own daughter is among the possessed. A review on Rotten Tomatoes says: "Puts all other movies claiming to be 'enigmatic horror' to shame. Every moment is carefully constructed, and yet you are never quite sure what you are looking at or where things stand. The last 20 minutes or so contain a series of reversals and twists so stunning that you won't recover for days." Upon hearing rumours that a Japanese man residing in the remote mountains could be the malevolent spirit behind the chaos, Jong-Goo decides to confront him. They stumble upon eerie pictures of the outbreak's victims plastered across his walls and a guard dog barring them from proceeding further until the sinister man appears. As his daughter's condition deteriorates, Jong-Goo pleads with the man to leave their village permanently, but his response is a dead goat hanging by their gate. When his daughter subsequently murders their neighbour, Jong-Goo is left pondering the extent of the evil spirit's ruthlessness and how he can possibly put an end to this nightmare, reports the Mirror US. This film will linger in your mind long after the credits have rolled. It's easily one of the most memorable and haunting horror films I've ever seen and well worth the lengthy runtime. "Another viewer wrote: "One of the greatest horror films I've ever seen. It's so original and stylish and amazingly executed with the writing, acting, and camera work. And the ending is devastating. Absolute must-see!". Following its release in 2016, The Wailing garnered widespread praise from critics, who hailed the film as "imaginative" and "unsettling." It proceeded to scoop numerous awards in Korean film categories before making its mark on Hollywood. Nearly a decade since its debut, the horror flick boasts an impressive 99% score on Rotten Tomatoes, setting a new standard for Korean horror. Much of this success can be attributed to its stellar cast, which includes Chun Woo-Hee, Hwang Jung-min and Kwak Do-won in the lead role of the police officer. "Beautiful scenery, chilling atmosphere, and gave me chills, especially the ending, which was one of the best I have ever seen in a horror movie. Well done." For those seeking their next fright, The Wailing is currently available to stream on Amazon Prime.

Rare KitKat flavours usually found in Japan spotted in big British supermarket chain
Plus, find out why KitKats are wildly popular in Japan SHOP TO IT Rare KitKat flavours usually found in Japan spotted in big British supermarket chain Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) SHOPPERS have spotted rare Japanese KitKat flavours at a big British supermarket chain. The unusual flavours include Matcha, Milk Tea and Strawberry. Sign up for Scottish Sun newsletter Sign up 1 The Japanese KitKat multipacks have been spotted in a Farmfoods store Credit: Facebook/Food Finds UK Official They're usually available in Japan but eagle-eyed shoppers spotted them in Farmfoods, which has more than 300 stores across the UK. KitKats are wildly popular in Japan and there have been more than 300 limited edition flavours of the chocolate bar released in the East Asian country. Many of the flavours are released regionally, and there is a popular tradition where people will bring back flavours for their friends and family when they travel to different regions. Nestle, which owns KitKat, has attributed the chocolate's success in Japan to this tradition. Now some of these flavours have appeared in Farmfoods in multipacks. A shopper shared the spot on the Facebook group Food Finds UK Official. The Matcha flavour is based on the traditional Japanese drink made from powdered green tea. Meanwhile the Milk Tea flavour has creamy milk chocolate flavoured with black tea extract. The Strawberry version has a strawberry-infused white chocolate coating. It's made with real strawberry juice powder and pieces. Fans mourn discontinued KitKat candy bar they will never see again – and they say it was 'the best one' The bars are usually difficult to get hold of in the UK although they can be bought from websites selling imported sweets. For example, Candy Mail is selling a pack of the Strawberry flavour for £5.99. It's not clear how much the packs are selling for in Farmfoods. Which other unusual KitKat flavours can you get hold of? Nestle has recently released a range of new KitKat flavours to delight chocolate fans. KitKat Nescafe Mocha Flavour is a collaboration with the instant coffee maker and combines espresso, chocolate and milk. It's been spotted in Sainsbury's and Waitrose and on Ocado, where it's selling for £2.20 to £2.25. Another brand mash-up is the KitKat Chunky Rolo, which has been spotted in some convenience stores in the UK. The bars, which are filled with the famous Rolo caramel, are usually available in Canada. Earlier this year, Nestle also launched a new-style KitKat sharing bar in three flavours. The exciting new flavours are Double Chocolate, Salted Caramel and Hazelnut.

All-female Japanese rock band Scandal is holding a concert in Singapore this September 2025
Before Japanese girl groups like Babymetal, Band-Maid, and Atarashii Gakko were in existence, there was Scandal – a four-member rock group that debuted in 2006. Amidst the primarily saccharine, cutesy outlook of other female idols in the Japanese music industry, this bunch of high school pals stood out with their badassery and broke all stereotypes of what a teen girl group in the scene should sound like. They play their own instruments too – with Mami on guitar, Tomomi on bass, Rina on drums, and Haruna as the lead vocalist. The OG fans would remember the foursome for their iconic black-and-red schoolgirl-like stage outfits back in their earlier days. Now in their mid-30s, they sport a more cleaned-up aesthetic alongside more masterful vocals – but with no lack of the same attitude they've come to be known and loved for. Scandal is known for hits like Harukaze, which was featured in anime Bleach; Shunkan Sentimental (瞬間センチメンタル) which was the soundtrack for Fullmetal Alchemist; and Yoake No Ryuuseigun (夜明けの流星群) for a Pokémon movie. As for non-anime-related tunes, Scandal Baby; Awanaitsumorino, Genkidene (会わないつもりの、元気でね); and Departure are among the extensive collection of power-packed earworms across their 11-album discography. As part of their 'Love, Spark, Joy!' Scandal Tour 2025, the J-rock quartet will be performing at The Star Theatre in Singapore on September 13, 2025, a Saturday evening.
