Symbolism overshadows characterization, or any sense of motive for that matter, nevertheless Roh succeeds as a spine-tingling baffler, hitting at nerves we can’t quite articulate but feel all the same.
Roh slowly builds to the cathartic release of scares genre aficionados crave. But, those watching will be invested thanks to the strong writing and characterizations, stunning score, and beautiful cinematography.
