Upcoming Horror Film 'Salmoji' Unveils Character Posters and Third Trailer Ahead of April 8 Release

The horror film 'Salmoji', directed by Lee Sang-min, is set to release on April 8. Ahead of its premiere, the film has unveiled seven character posters featuring stars Kim Hye-yoon, Lee Jong-won, and others, along with its third trailer on the 25th. The thriller revolves around a mysterious figure captured on the Salmoji road view, leading a film crew into a terrifying ordeal.

'Salmoji' follows the story of a film crew heading to a reservoir for a reshoot after an unidentified figure is spotted on the Salmoji road view. The crew encounters something ominous in the dark, deep waters. The newly released character posters capture the varied expressions of the crew as they gaze at a stone tower in the darkness.

What Are the Fearful Expressions of the Seven Lead Actors?

First, Soo-in (Kim Hye-yoon) appears drenched and bewildered, with the tagline "I only believe what I see," sparking curiosity about the entity she will face. Ki-tae (Lee Jong-won) displays a determined look, intent on unraveling the mystery of Salmoji. In contrast, Gyo-sik (Kim Jun-han) has a chilling expression, paired with the tagline "It's scary alone, I'll go with you," creating an eerie atmosphere. Kyung-tae (Kim Young-sung) is in shock with a flashlight in hand, while Kyung-jun (Oh Dong-min) appears frozen, as if confronting an unbelievable situation, raising questions about what they have witnessed. The desperation to escape is evident in Sung-bin (Yoon Jae-chan), and Se-jung (Jang Da-ah) contrasts her hopeful words, "We're going to see ghosts today, right?" with a look of shock, intensifying the ominous vibe.

What Horror Scenes Are Revealed in the Third Trailer?

The third trailer begins with Se-jung's line, "Did you see it? The Salmoji road view ghost," instantly setting a spooky tone. As Soo-in closes the car trunk, the perspective shifts to a road view camera, capturing attention. The film crew steps into Salmoji, where an unknown presence is detected, a knife falls from a bowl, and the reservoir turns blood-red, escalating the ominous atmosphere. The trailer features a skipping stone returning, Gyo-sik's bizarre actions, a hand suddenly emerging from a stone tower, and other inexplicable phenomena, amplifying the horror. The voice of an old woman saying, "If you want to leave, you must beg," overlaps with a black hand gripping Soo-in's shoulder, heightening anticipation for the intense horror 'Salmoji' promises to deliver.

'Salmoji' is set to premiere on April 8.
