Buyer promotion in the Busan market and selection into the film festival competition are different matters.

The father in the story is a renowned pediatric heart surgeon.When his daughter is haunted by a vengeful ghost, the medical knowledge he relies on to save her is no match for an ancient curse.To find the source of the threat, he must re-face his hidden past and the ghosts connected to that experience.

The director takes the juxtaposition of medicine and spiritual beliefs as the starting point for his creation.In an interview with Variety, he said that he is not only concerned about supernatural phenomena, but also how much people are willing to pay when the people they love are threatened.The surgeon is used to dealing with problems in the body, but this time he must deal with the guilt that he buried.

Producer Hoàng Gia was previously responsible for the development of The Corpse 2 (Vietnamese Quỷ Nhập Tràng 2, temporary translation).He hopes that the new film will have enough horror intensity while rooting the horror in family, blood relations and the consequences of the actions of the previous generation on the next generation.The “blood” in the title of the film is therefore related to family ties and the value passed down.

Mockingbird's business director Phong Duong also serves as co-executive producer of the film.He regards narrative, performance and overall movie experience as the foundation that horror films must have when going overseas, believing that an attractive concept alone is no longer enough to satisfy audiences.
