Resurrection of the Butterfly is an interesting blend of historical horror and modern romance, with some unique narrative choices. The dual storyline—one set in the brutal past of 1592 during Japan's invasion of Korea, and the other in contemporary times—creates a haunting atmosphere. Non-gae's twisted love story mingles with Seung-hyun and Young-shin's botanical obsession, leading to some eerie moments, especially when they delve into the legend of a mythical flower. The pacing can feel uneven at times, but the practical effects have a raw quality that adds to the unsettling vibe. Performances are genuine, with a palpable tension that lingers throughout. It captures the darkness of desire and betrayal, making it distinctive in the realm of indie horror.
