Mudborn

2025 · 1h 51m · Horror, Thriller

IMDb 5.8

Skip it. 'Mudborn' has an intriguing premise—a cursed clay doll + pregnant wife + VR game developer—but a 5.8 IMDb score signals the execution falls flat. Unless you're a completist for Asian horror, your time is better spent on films that actually deliver the scares.

Plot

Hsu-Chuan, who works at a game company, accidentally brings home a broken clay doll from a haunted house while developing a new horror VR game. Unexpectedly, his pregnant wife, Mu-Hua, a cultural relic restorer, develops an obsession with the doll and relentlessly tries to repair it. As strange things begin to happen in the house, Mu-Hua's condition deteriorates, and Hsu-Chuan, at his wits' end, seeks help from a spiritual medium, Ah-Sheng. Meanwhile, the horrifying secret hidden behind the clay doll begins to surface.
