Poster of Suddenly in the Dark

Suddenly in the Dark (1981) follows a woman whose life unravels after her husband hires a beautiful young housekeeper with a mysterious past. As jealousy and paranoia consume her, she begins seeing visions of a strange doll and sinister apparitions that may—or may not—be real. This haunting South Korean psychological horror blends domestic suspense, erotic tension, and supernatural dread in a slow-burning descent into madness.
