Show Title: 손/The Guest Audience Rating: M for horror and gore (no sex) Warnings: This is a demon possession show, and a fairly violent one, so there's lots of bloodiness, some body horror, etc. Length of Episodes: 60 minutes Length of Series: 16 episodes Why you recommend it: It's so good! Excellent worldbuilding, interesting look at musok (Korean shamanism), wonderful characters, good plotting and pacing. The three main characters--a psychic, a Catholic priest, and a detective (see icon)--have a wonderful relationship built on fighting back against mutual trauma, and the supporting cast is wonderful too. The main demonic antagonist is sufficiently otherworldly to be scary.
This is undoubtedly a horror show, but it's not a slasher. It's very suspenseful and quite violent, but even if you're not typically a horror fan (as I am not), you might really enjoy this character-driven show.
