Gleich zu Beginn blickt Ronan direkt in die Kamera, chantet eine Beschwörungsformel und bittet die Zuschauer:innen mitzumachen. Das soll ihre kleine Tochter segnen und einen Fluch von ihr nehmen. Jener lastet auf dem Mädchen, seitdem Ronan vor sechs Jahren gemeinsam mit Freunden in die entlegene chinesische Provinz Yunnan gereist ist, um dort ein geheimnisvolles Ritual zu filmen. Kevin Kos Found-Footage-Angstmacher Incantation ist weiterer Beweis für die beeindruckende Renaissance des taiwanesischen Horrorkinos und wurde in seiner Heimat zum (bisher) erfolgreichsten Film des Jahres. Wer traut sich?

was born in 1983 and rose to prominence with a string of shorts, including The Print. He made his feature debut in 2009 with Invitation Only, “Taiwan’s first-ever slasher horror,” but has since also made more romantic fare, including Dude’s Manual (2018), his first foray into mainland China. His latest effort, Incantation, is now the highest-grossing Taiwanese horror film ever and has been a streaming hit not only in Asia but also South America.
