一 |     一项由国际合作团队创建的新小鼠脑数据集显示，决策过程会调动整个大脑的神经元活动。                   “即便是可以说相对简单的决策，也会招募到非常多的大脑区域。    South Korea has steadily built a reputation for creating some of the most inventive and spine-chilling horror films. If you are thinking of simple jump scares, you are in for a lot! Simply put, K-horror thrives on atmosphere, folklore, psychological complexity and a uniquely Korean blend of tragedy and terror. These films pull you in with stylish direction and layered storytelling. Interestingly, they leave you thinking about their implications long after you’ve locked all your doors and switched on every light in the house.If you’re ready for a guided tour through Korea’s most unforgettable nightmares, here are ten of the best Korean horror movies for you to watch with your lights on.     In This Article      1. A Tale of Two Sisters (2003)2. The Wailing (2016)3. Train to Busan (2016)4. I Saw the Devil (2010)5. Gonjiam: Haunted Asylum (2018)6. Thirst (2009)7. The Host (2006)8. The Call (2020)9. Whispering Corridors (1998)10. The Piper (2015)1. A Tale of Two Sisters (2003)          Kim Jee Woon’s gothic psychological horror remains a benchmark for modern Korean cinema. Loosely rooted in an old Joseon-era folktale, the story revolves around two sisters who return from a mental health facility only to encounter escalating tension with their cold and unpredictable stepmother. From its dreamlike cinematography to its suffocating atmosphere, the film invites viewers into a labyrinth of memory, trauma and hallucination. Instead of spelling things out, it asks you to piece together the truth.     2. The Wailing (2016)          If A Tale of Two Sisters is a fairy-tale nightmare, The Wailing is a sprawling supernatural epic disguised as a crime drama. It is set in a quiet mountain village that is plagued by bizarre illnesses and gruesome murders. The film follows an overwhelmed police officer who becomes embroiled in a series of events involving shamans, demons and eerie strangers. Director Na Hong Jin blends spiritual mythology with real world dread. The Wailing isn’t just scary; it is unsettling in a way few films dare to be.     3. Train to Busan (2016)          Zombie films may feel overdone, but Train to Busan revitalises the genre globally. It is set almost entirely aboard a high-speed train, as the story begins with a viral outbreak that transforms commuters into ravenous undead within minutes. What elevates the film isn’t just the tight, breathless action choreography but its emotional core. At its centre is a father trying to reconnect with his young daughter and their evolving bond anchors the chaos around them. The characters are well drawn, the social commentary is sharp, and the pacing is absolutely relentless. It is a perfect example of how Korean filmmakers turn genre films into human stories.     4. I Saw the Devil (2010)          Not for the faint-hearted, as I Saw the Devil blurs the line between horror and thriller. A secret agent embarks on a mission of revenge after his fiancée is murdered by a sadistic serial killer. Now a cat-and-mouse chase begins that becomes a brutal story of vengeance. The film is horrifying because of the killer’s cruelty and the protagonist’s descent into moral corruption. It comes with slick cinematography and Kim Jee Woon manages to keep the audiences hooked with nerve-shredding tension. The violence is graphic and chilling, to say the least.     5. Gonjiam: Haunted Asylum (2018)          This movie explores the lives of a group of young content creators. They visit an abandoned psychiatric hospital to livestream their investigation for views and sponsorship money. At first, it feels like a mischievous reality-TV stunt. It is complete with pranks planned to scare the audience. But once the group begins exploring deeper into the asylum, the pranks give way to very real and very terrifying phenomena. The film’s shaky-cam style makes each moment feel immersive and real. Also, its exploration of the internet culture adds a modern twist to the haunted-asylum trope.     6. Thirst (2009)          Park Chan Wook’s Thirst is a vampire film unlike any other. The reasons being that it is sensual, tragic, darkly funny and unexpectedly philosophical. The story follows a devoted priest who becomes a vampire after volunteering for a medical experiment intended to save lives. The priest is suddenly torn between his religious convictions and his bloodthirsty new instincts. He begins an affair that spirals into guilt, violence and moral decay. As always, Chan Wook's visual flair elevates the film. Also, the movie does not rely on typical vampire cliches clichés. It uses the supernatural to examine human weakness and spiritual conflict.     7. The Host (2006)          Though often labelled a monster movie, The Host is far more sophisticated than that simple description suggests. It is directed by the globally acclaimed Bong Joon Ho. But interestingly, this movie released before Parasite. It follows a dysfunctional but deeply loving family fighting to rescue their daughter from a mutated river creature that rises from Seoul’s Han River. The monster is frightening enough, but what sets the film apart is its blend of horror, political satire and heartfelt family drama. Bong uses the creature as a metaphor for Government failure, environmental negligence and societal indifference. It’s thrilling, funny, emotional and terrifying all at once.     8. The Call (2020)          A more recent addition to the Korean horror canon, The Call combines time-travel elements with psychological horror. The premise centres on two women living decades apart but connected through a mysterious telephone line. It starts as an unusual friendship, but it quickly turns nightmarish when one of the women uses their link to manipulate the timeline. She gives way to her own violent impulses. The film escalates at a breakneck pace. It blends sci-fi, thriller and horror into a uniquely chilling ride. Its unpredictable twists and menacing energy keep viewers on edge until the final seconds.     9. Whispering Corridors (1998)          A landmark in the revival of Korean horror during the late 1990s, Whispering Corridors is set in an elite all-girls school where mysterious deaths spark rumours of ghosts roaming the hallways. While it functions as a supernatural mystery, the film also critiques the pressures and abuses embedded within Korea’s academic system. Its success spawned a long-running anthology franchise, but the original remains the most impactful, thanks to its eerie atmosphere and emotionally charged storytelling. The school setting, with its empty classrooms and locked corridors, becomes a perfect stage for terror.     10. The Piper (2015)          Inspired by the classic legend of the Pied Piper, this folk-horror gem is set in the aftermath of the Korean War. A wandering piper and his son arrive at a remote village plagued by a rat infestation. At first welcomed, he is soon betrayed by the superstitious villagers. It leads to one of the most chilling revenge arcs in Korean horror. It begins as a quiet and almost pastoral drama. Then it slowly transforms into a grotesque and poetic retribution. The film’s unsettling tone, creepy creature design and moral lessons make it a standout for fans of folklore-based horror.One thing is for sure, Korean horror doesn't simply aim to shock. It often reflects deep-rooted cultural anxieties about family expectations, social hierarchy, Government mistrust, colonial trauma, religious conflict and the wounds left by rapid modernisation. Ghosts in Korean cinema are rarely just monsters. They are symbols of unresolved guilt or injustice. Monsters represent societal failures. Revenge stories become meditations on morality. Even zombie films carry emotional weight.Stylistically, K-horror thrives on atmosphere. Directors take their time setting up tension, focusing on mood, character psychology and beautiful-yet-ominous visuals. The result is a mix of artful storytelling and gut-wrenching fear that resonates with global audiences.Also Read: Inspection Bungalow Review: A Quirky Horror Comedy That Fumbles Its Final Stretch。”加州大学洛杉矶分校神经生物学教授、国际脑实验室（International Brain Laboratory，简称IBL）创始成员之一安妮·丘奇兰（Anne Churchland）说。                   丘奇兰指出，传统的经典模型认为，基于视觉的决策活动路径是：从视觉丘脑传递到初级视觉皮层及其联络区，然后可能到达额叶皮层。但新的研究结果显示，“也许大脑中存在更多的并行处理，而不是我们原先以为的那种线性、逐层的电路结构。

二 | ”                    丘奇兰和其他科学家在2017年建立了IBL，这源于他们对以往小规模决策研究的挫折——那些研究往往一次只分析一两个脑区。IBL的目标是大规模地研究大脑如何整合信息并做出决策。

三 | “我们组成了一个大型团队，因为大家都意识到，只有集体的努力才能在这个长期困扰我们的研究问题上取得突破。”丘奇兰说。

四 |                    经过多年努力，IBL团队在12个实验室间统一了研究方法与设备，最终绘制出了小鼠在执行决策任务时的全脑神经活动图谱。该图谱最近发表在《自然》[1]期刊上。结果显示，与选择和运动行为相关的神经活动几乎遍布整个大脑。同一团队发表的另一篇同期论文也发现，基于先验知识（prior knowledge）的决策过程同样涉及广泛的脑区[2]。                   IBL的实验室通过整合来自139只完成视觉辨别任务小鼠的Neuropixels神经记录数据生成了这幅图谱。每个实验室记录的脑区不同，但合起来覆盖了整个大脑。

五 | 最终的数据集跨越了近300个脑区，包含超过62万个神经元的活动，是目前关于决策过程最丰富的数据集之一。

六 | 未参与该研究的拉德堡德大学脑、认知与行为教授弗洛里斯·德·兰赫（Floris de Lange）评价道。                   IBL已将该数据集公开[3]。德·兰赫表示，这将让研究人员“能够以一种非常简便而强大的方式来检验新的科学假设”。                   挑战传统观点                    IBL选择了一种视觉行为任务——它足够复杂，可以揭示决策过程的不同方面，同时又足够简单，能够在不同实验室中重复实现。                   在实验中，小鼠会看到一个带有黑白条纹的圆形图案出现在屏幕的左侧或右侧，然后它们需要转动一个微小的滚轮，将圆形移到屏幕中央。

七 | 如果小鼠成功完成任务，就会获得一口水；如果失败，则会听到白噪声作为反馈。在此过程中，电极记录下小鼠从看到视觉提示、作出选择、转动滚轮，到最终获得水或噪声反馈时的大脑活动。

八 |                    一旦动物看到视觉提示，大脑中一些可预测的区域（包括视觉皮层、丘脑和前额叶皮层）就会出现活动。                   与选择相关的神经活动不仅出现在皮层区域（这与以往研究一致），还出现在下丘脑、后脑和小脑等皮层下区域。这一发现挑战了“只有少数特定脑区编码决策信息”的传统观点，支持了“决策相关信息在大脑中广泛分布”的新理念。

九 |                    “令人惊讶的是，几乎到处都能看到与选择有关的神经活动。”宾夕法尼亚大学的神经科学副研究教授Long Ding说道，他并未参与这项研究。                   与运动和反馈相关的信号也遍布整个大脑：在记录的脑区中，有81%包含可以预测动物滚轮速度的信息；几乎所有被记录的脑区——包括那些与奖励无直接关联的区域——都能准确预测小鼠是否获得奖励，其中丘脑、中脑和后脑的活动最为强烈。

十 |                    当小鼠在实验中更频繁地看到圆形出现在屏幕一侧时，它们会逐渐将这种“先验信息”融入下一次的决策之中。研究团队在第二项研究中报告，这种信息广泛分布在大脑的20%至30%区域中，包括早期视觉通路中的感觉处理区域，如背外侧膝状体（dorsal lateral geniculate）。                   这些发现推翻了长期以来的观点——即“先验信息”只会在最后一步才被整合到高级皮层或决策区的过程中。

十一 | 丘奇兰表示：“新的结果表明，先验信息在整个决策过程中都会发挥作用。”                    总体而言，这些研究提示我们，目前关于决策机制及其控制脑区的模型可能过于局限，其他尚未探索的脑区也可能同样重要。

十二 |                    尽管分析表明，即使在感觉处理的早期阶段，大脑的分布式网络中也包含与决策相关的信息，但这并不意味着存在因果关系。Ding指出，未来的研究需要确定这些信息是如何被实际用于下一次决策或学习的。                   德·兰赫指出，这一详尽的脑图为后续实验奠定了基础，并可能成为一个“资料库”，帮助神经科学家在自己的实验室中验证结果。最终，这些研究强调了大规模、多实验室合作的重要性，尤其是在研究大脑活动时。

十三 |                    该国际合作组织如今已扩展至21个实验与理论神经科学实验室，并成立了一个名为IBL 2.0的新团队，计划与新的合作伙伴共享他们积累的工具与经验。丘奇兰表示：“我希望我们的研究能说明，当更多人联合起来时，他们能完成超越单个实验室能力的工作，并为整个领域带来关键性的洞见。
