Incantation

Incantation (2022) is a Taiwanese found footage supernatural folk horror film that follows Li Ro-nan as she protects her six-year-old daughter Dodo from a curse, while also confronting the trauma and mistakes of her past. The film's atmospheric tension, convincing performances, and effective use of ritualistic horror create an immersive experience that feels disturbingly real. As the story unfolds, Ronan reveals the true nature of the curse and its connection to an ancestral deity called Mother-Buddha, a malevolent entity brought from Southeast Asia to Yunnan.
