- A Viet Cong soldier is haunted by the ghost of a fallen comrade.
WANDERING SOUL is used with permission from Josh Tanner. Learn more at vimeo.com/user3478472.
Dao, a Viet Cong soldier, is stationed deep in the dark of the Cu Chi tunnels during the Vietnam war in 1966, where he has to bury one of his fallen comrades in combat. The tunnels are dark and claustrophobic, and the soldier is isolated.
When another soldier named Quan comes to retrieve him, Dao refuses, insisting he must finish burying and praying for the soldier, or else his ghost will come after them. Dao is left behind, with the Americans due to swarm the area at any moment. But as the eerie sounds of the dead begin to fill the air, Dao realizes too late that he should've left the tunnels.
Writer-director Josh Tanner, along with co-writer Jade Van Der Lei, has crafted a supernatural horror short that practices an elegant economy on many levels, from the pared-down, claustrophobic setting to the compressed scale of the narrative. But within its 12 minutes, it wrenches an intense, vivid tension and fear from its evocation of the supernatural, all while illuminating a forgotten chapter of a military conflict that still haunts contemporary events today.
Making a film shot in a tunnel visually dynamic is no easy feat, but through judicious but moody lighting and excellently calibrated editing, the craftsmanship pulls viewers along, establishing the clashing senses of urgency that power the film's momentum: Dao believes he must pray over his fallen comrade or else his soul will haunt him, but they also must evacuate the tunnels quickly.
The writing is equally smart, precise and lean, beginning in just the right place and building the central questions that concern the narrative: are there are indeed wandering souls, and will Dao and Quan escape them?
After an effective build-up, the film then pivots seamlessly into horror mode, crafting effectively creepy chills and thrills while ratcheting up the pace and intensity. Actor Lap Phan as Dao plays his character's agitation with just the right amount of edginess to make viewers question whether or not he's unhinged and therefore imagining everything -- a slight frisson of uncertainty that the storytelling spins into a stunning resolution.
WANDERING SOUL takes its central idea and name from a real-life operation in the Vietnam War. To say anything more would be to give away the film's powerful reveal, but suffice it to say that it functions not just as a great twist, but an uneasy, resonant commentary on the wages of war, not just physically but psychologically. Its ending haunts like the ghosts that Dao hears in the tunnels -- and won't easily be shaken from the psyche until well after viewing. - Фільми й анімація
You can only imagine how scary it would be after you bury someone and then you hear screaming and other scary things
He will feel haunted for rest of his life
Flurr XCIII good.
Think about the ptsd on both sides
Imagine burying someone then feeling vibrations, screams/voices, and a dead man opening his eyes. Jesus christ
Yes it's really scary but minecraft cave sounds is more scary
Man, the acting in this one is insane. Props to all the actors
Thanks for the support my man.
Normally they won't acting this much. But talking about death and spirits, we do put a lot of emotion on it. Because we respect them.
Osama Bin Laden yeah, Lap Phan played as Dao
@@FireTypePhoenix Lap Phan what a legend
Jaime my grandpa told me a whole lot of ghost stories fighting in the jungle
Imagine being so scared and tired to the point of literally hallucinating and turning delirious imagining dead bodies watching you. War is scary.
Been tired enough to hallucinate out in field. Gave me the jeebies staring at a snowy field at ftx and started seeing nonexisting movement
Ever heard of the operation wandering soul?
@@theleetworldbest dang
this guys is not crazy,its america torture in war,this is America.
@@sonntagbeiomi6960 After watching this short film I have now.
The story line actually makes a lot of sense:
When the Vietnamese buried their soldiers in those tunnels there was a high chance of them getting monoxide poisoning coupled with the sounds of Ghost tape 10 that made them hallucinate even more until the point where many had either a heart attack or mentally scarred for life.
the truth is.. that it was real... ghost denier
True, but at the same time, this takes place 3 years before operation wandering soul. But this minor inaccuracies dwarves compared to the spoopy factor.
Yeah, I bet incense wasn’t too regulated at the time either so that would put out a lot of CO
How did the American troops scared the enemy soldiers during the Vietnam war
@@matthewskudzienski888 loud speakers by pretending to be the dead in Vietnamese, look up Operation Wandering Soul
I lived in vietnam, and vietnamese vets tell me, they used to shoot where the sounds come from. Not so effective.
The point was to expose their positions as well.
Maybe its effective a few time. When they figure it out not so much. Vnese anyway
That’s not such a bad idea knowing a sound comes directly from an object or entity or ergo a us soldier with a speaker on his back 🤷🏽♂️
Not surprised I would shoot where those sounds were because I don’t want something that makes that noise coming after me so I would try and kill it
Still it was kidn aeffective if they revealed their position to fire at the speakers.
-“mate turn the speaker off”
-“what do you mean? it’s already off”
-“MY MAN RUN AND DON’T STOP”
Lol

This is actually kinda sad. Imagine being this guy, burying his comrade, mourning his death, praying for his soul and how does the spirit of the deceased thank him? By attacking him and haunting him

Legend has it that the Vietnamese got revenge by setting up loudspeakers around US bases that blasted Nickleback all night.
It's true.

*laughs in kidz bop*
Plot twist: the recording is actually also a catalyst for the paranormal, so what the vietnamese soldier seeing is real
its normal to see a halucination at their condition. if u dont sleep properly like 3 days u ll start halucinate eventually. sound makes it easy because of their beliefs.

I'd ask the nearest of my squadmates if he knew who replaced the battery.
Then, I'd check the portable player and the battery. And if, by then, I noticed the battery was missing, I would start to freak out.
@@Briselance and then, one of the U.S soldier kick a door and saying "BISMILLAH!"

that wouldve been a better idea then this film
Omg that strategy was cruel af , imagine being in the shoes of a Vietnam soldier hearing these loud ass eerie noises being able to see nothing but pitch black,bruh I would be there dead already.
Not just that the US was playing with their beliefs and that is even more cruel. Using tactics like this should be a war crime.
I mean ngl though it was to flush them out so it was either that or the use if flamethrowers/explosives. War is hell.
@@nihilus1650 at least they'll die. Dying is a lot better then probably years of psychologycal trauma. You didn't go through what these soldiers been through. They didn't even know they were fighting Americans! They thought they still fighting France aggressors

He told me about the first Marine in his Squad that was killed crossing a river in DaNang in January 1969, Rocky Wade Hanna. Dad said he has survivor's guilt because he was the lead guy crossing the river and Rocky Hanna told my dad to let him go across the river first since my dad went last time. As soon as Rocky crossed the river and got to the other side he walked up the bank and triggered a booby trap and was blown apart. My dad said that has bothered him all these years. War is Hell

This terrified me my first time watching this, I can’t believe a short film on UA-cam has quality better than most modern horror movies
Yea
So true
It’s more the other way around, short films have better quality because they are short.
@@Vino3437 if it takes the same amount of time, then the shorter one should be better, assuming the same person directs both.However, I don’t get what you mean by it’s the other way round.
@@foxgaming76yt24 yes, that’s what I tried to say. I meant it’s the other way around because in fact it is not surprising that short films like this are better than films.
Operation Wandering Soul is one of the scariest war stories I learned about. It scared Ally Vietnamese Forces so much, that it was discontinued.
it's almost as if they said that in the end of the video😮
Plus it made the Vietnamese fight harder and an easy target for the Americans
The operation stopped because they don't want to harm any ARVN soldiers
what if Vietnamese soldiers had bamboo sharpened hallow spears that had poison at the tip and a bomb hidden inside
@@Pengquy That already happened in reality
I’ve been inside one of those Cu Chi tunnels. It was dark and I felt so claustrophobic. Even though I’ve visited the place at daytime it was still quite scary. It was much smaller and narrower than it looks in this film. Terrible to think how horrified the soldiers must have felt, being Vietnamese
these guys desserves oscar , that acting is very realistic
That's pretty creepy.
Probably effective against stressed out, sleep deprived soldiers with superstitious beliefs.
@NPC #40249 Plus it also scared the hell out of some of our soldiers
@Chí Phèo nguyễn As an American that is absolutely true. War sucks.

Honestly, staying in that burial cave for a while to bury the dead, you’d probably run low on oxygen eventually, then combine that with the Wandering Soul audio, no wonder he went delirious and saw all of that.

In war, you do whatever you can to defeat the enemy without exposing yourself to harm.
Aidan Reimann oh god that was horrible...the torcher methods were absolutely appalling, I felt bad for everyone in this war...
@Aidan Reimann That's what you get for invading other people's country.
@@KuraDKuruta i
KuraD Kuruta we were supportive of the Viet Cong during the French Indochina war, even secretly sending US forces to train the revolutionaries. We wanted frances diplomatic support more than we needed to support the Viet Cong because of our moral values of supporting the revolutions, though, so we were dragged into the Vietnam conflict and were dug in furthermore during the mcarthy era just because they were communist.
And we weren’t invading, we were defending the south Vietnamese government at their behest with the support of the ARVN. The Viet Cong were unjustified in their use of torture and traps (ie punji sticks, trap doors, etc).
>but muh us army war crimes too!!!!
Yeah, well there was so much animosity between us forces and the Vietnamese people in war-ridden areas because of their cooperation to house and support the Viet Cong. We never asked for them to hide among civilians, nor did we ever want them to. I’m not defending war crimes, I’m just saying they didn’t happen for no reason.
As a Vietnamese, I can relate to this. When we were little, our elders would tell us ghost stories and all the scary things. It's in our culture and even now, I sleep with my lights on when i'm alone..... unless I'm with a woman, then all lights are off.... LOL!
Yeah that true I agree
Lol that so true and best comment
🤣🤣🤣
@Joe Mama Maybe that was the way to keep kids (us) quiet or calm down back then. Unfortunately, it would traumatize us until now 😁.
@Joe Mama My brother in law had the same experience. He told me when he came to the US, he was sleeping at his sponsor's house when someone woke him up. When he opened his eyes, it was his father looking at him. I guess he got startled and yelled, so his dad faded through the wall. When he called his family back in Vietnam, they told him that his father just passed. Weird but I have heard many stories like that!
Ngl that was like the best jumpscare I’ve even seen like ever
I’m not even Vietnamese or American but when i listen to that sound i get flashbacks to something i wasn’t even in, its kinda scary
Vietnamese military retaliated using similar tech and the speakers goes :
" no health care, no pension funds, homeless soldiers, inflation, high medical bills, no weed."

"I forgot to put in the tape"
"Oh fu-"
Crazy thing is this is what US soldiers did . they made them think it was spirits and played this through speakers since they thougt that it was real spirits.
Out of desperation comes invention. The US forces were having such a difficult time uprooting NVA and Vietcong forces that they decided that they needed to re-evaluate their idea on how to fight a war. That third dimension was always something American forces were lacking, but they caught their stride with this sort of thing.
Ghost tape 10 to be correct
@jemielnic Not really. Setting up a trap is way more complicated then playing something from speakers.

When I was a boy scout in an all Vietnamese troops, the adults would tell us so craaaaaaazy ass stories ghost stories from back home.
Well, Vietnamese have a lots of good horror stuffs
But in this case , that Vnmese had just buried his mate , what could be scarier ?
@The Raw no, Americans made Somme scary noises so that they could scare the Vietnamese and so that they won’t fight
As a Vietnamese I felt impressed by the accent

True, but then again can you imagine what it felt like for the Vietnamese soldiers? They believed in this stuff. The American could keep looking at the radio and realise it was just a tape.
Eline van Loosbroek yeah I didn’t think about that one......
This is heart-breaking. 💔 Having visited the War Musuem and the Cu Chi Tunnels early this year, this brought back the pain I felt when I learned about what truly transpired during this war. I initially knew about the war through war films and books, but I didn't know and understand the gravity of this event until I visited those places. I never knew about the Wandering Souls until I watched a video about terrifying sounds from the VN war and this video. This tactic was just too cruel, too inhuman. And all for the sake of hunting down and killing the people defending their own land. I pray for the souls of those whose lives were taken during this meaningless war, and I hope that the world will never experience such cruelty again.
But dude every war is meaningless in the first placer
It wasn’t made to kill them. It was made to scare them so they run away
Other than the size of the tunnel, this capture perfectly the claustrophobic vibe of Cu Chi Tunnels. The tunnels became a tourist attraction after the war, they widen it so the Western tourists can fit through them, added air veins and lights along the tunnel lines. Even though, your leg will ach like hell after just one short tour of crouching. The tunnels used to be much, much smaller, may be around 1/5, 1/6 or even smaller of that in this film, without air support and completely unlit. Sometimes, even the usually small-framed Vietnamese guerilla troops got stuck and die by suffocating. Imagine slowly dying deep in the dirt, stucked from head to toe, all alone. And thousands of people were born under these tunnels (there were big underground rooms, linked by these tunnels) and called it home. We Vietnamese don't call Cu Chi "Steel Soil" for nothing.
Been there, just walking through Cu Chi is eerie, lots of kill holes from hollow trees, your foot steps echo into the hard clay soil below.

My unit conducted this type of operation in the same area in 69.
Only we did it primarily by helicopter. It scared the hell out of many Americans as well.
I think that's what the main character meant when he said they were playing with fire. Messing with people's heads goes both ways.
@@Ryan-wx8of no, "don't playing with fire" or in Vietnamese "đừng đùa với lửa" means that you can't or shouldn't mess with someone or something which is stronger, more powerful than you. You can clearly see that Dao, the main charactor, was very frustrated when he found out the Americans were playing with the "ghost", by faking them.He was trying to warn the Americans. In Vietnam, supernatural means a lot to us, so messing up with it is like playing with fire: you can get burned!

@@KalEdDJ Don't forget the fact that US troops were fighting on Vietnam's land. As I said before, supernature means a lot to Vietnamese. The main charactor thought that the US troops had disrespected the ghost, which may make the ghost angry and the ghost would take away the US troops' soul as a revenge. That's why he kept chanting.

@Heiu in Vietnam they had diffrent view of communism like China (heck even they both on communist team they still hate each other) for Vietnam communism means freedom from colonial power its kind of like US but with the ideolgy of democracy instead of communism
the actual meaning of the " don't play with fire" actually mean dont mess with the dead! cause im a vietnamese
yeah thats not hard to guess
Many asian country have a culture or respect to the dead people and spirits, so yes. Don't play with fire.
Well more like messing with the dead over all.
This operation was hella weird man and did take a toll on both american and vietnamese. Because some of the americans were avrn and had the same beliefs as the vc
Rarely does anybody who says "You're playing with fire" mean it literally. It's always taken in the context of the situation. The translation here is accurate. He is literally saying "You're playing with fire" and we all know he really means that you're messing with things you have no business in.

Im a Viet and this movie is quite spooky and entertaining , but there is something , a tiny bit of background to Asian culture ghost and more specificly , Vietnamese ghost, here in Vietnam, we have a belief, if you didnt kill or somewhat cause the man's death, his ghost wont haunt you, i got a story here, quite famous in Vietnam, whether you choose to believe it or not, it depicts what we think of ghost here in Nam,there was a team of students who went to the northern moutains of vietnam,. near the border with china for some project, when they rest at a place which was a battlefield in 1979 between the chinese and vietnam, and everyone was having lunch when suddenly a girl in the team ask for a cigarette with a low tone voice like a man, but the thing is, she never smoke before, but they gave her anyway, then she speak of herself as a dead vietnamese soldier, a recon , (from now on i use he) he said he was scouting a artillery position when discovered and fired upon, badly wounded he was but he tried to crawl back to vietnam territory, then died there, everyone ask if he can show them when he lies so that they can bring him home, he said no use, his body has decompose beyond recognition, then everyone ask his name and where he from and if he want a small shrine in his name there, and he said : thats fine by me, i get a place to rest and i can also guard our border once more
well, thats it, i am not saying this movie is in accurate, im not the type of person who hunts inacurracies in movies, this movie did its job, spooky and entertaining
I'm a Vietnamese. I respect your story cause it's true. Think about when "the man spirit" says he can guard once again. Respectfully !

As indonesian, i can relate. Southeast asia for me has the most terrifying myth and legend, some are true
Dang it! He is truly a warrior. Even when he died.
Very intense acting. Just very intense and amazing.
As me being half Vietnamese and American, this is personal to me since my grandpa (mom's side) hated my dad because my dad was a US marine and his dad was a French soldier during the Vietnam War. Since the war ended, my grandpa had a huge animosity to my dad (dad's dad died when my dad was 15). Anytime I see my grandpa, he would made sure I had no American clothing on. Heck, he charged my dad $300 for a day (every Saturday) of babysitting as a way to curse my dad for being a US marine. Heck, almost got smacked for doing the American salute.
Gramps didn't really forgive him, even after my dad bails out his son from jail for not being able to pay parking fees. From what I gather from my cousins, gramps suffers from horrific nightmares, claiming to see ghosts of the deceased Vietcons. Haunted badly. Even in my gramp's deathbed, he refused to apologize or let go of Wandering Souls.
Gramps died, still hating my dad. Even my aunties began to think my dad's a curse. I was in grief because I couldn't do anything to get gramps to let go. I still blame myself for letting gramps die at 90 in agony, haunted and suffering because of Wandering Soul.
Today....is the day we laid gramps in the cemetery. I still don't know if he found peace or is still haunted.

As a native Vietnamese this video hit me on a sentimental level
A legend said: when you hear a bomb explosion you are "still alive..."
...but if you hear the tree talking you will "chet con di me may roi..."
USMC : we have ghost tape
VC : we are talking trees
English pls I'm veit just I'm more fluent in English
@@jeffn1118 That talking tree is vietcong. they often camouflage the city with branches. When the tree talks to you, the next thing is AK gunshots
Ich Leibe Arbeit
This tactic later was overused and became a failure
At first it could really work but when you adapted and get used to it, it would just annoying
But this would be good on islam
@@callum7171 wat
@TheChiller007 That's the idea though, as shown in the movie. They don't have to surrender or get scared, you just have to piss them off to the point where they come at you with a bloody rage. It was effective for a while, but like you said they would make easy targets, thus (in theory) letting you fire on their now revealed position.
@@callum7171 huh what?
@@callum7171 How ? I dont think you know anything about Islam lol do some reading
The filming is just amazing!!!!
Literally the best one yet!
4:00 Those are the most terrifying sounds I've ever heard.
And it even happened in real life
Matthew+ Why don't you just listen to the whole tape? It's on UA-cam.
Matthew minecraft cave noises
Ghost tape 10 even worse
Not what you want to hear inside of a cave full of corpse
America: spooky sounds to trick the vietcongs
Vietcongs: talking trees to scare the americans
Lol=))
VEITCONG its vietcong it's already plural you wouldn't say chineses
Sky:speaks fortunate son and napalm
MAKE MORE PLEASE THIS IS THE BEST HORROR MOVIE SO FAR
My god this was insane. I haven't been on the edge of my seay like this in a while. You've earned my subscription
This was more creepy than modern horror films and its based of actual war strategy
Why haven't anyone make a game with this yet!? Like its sounds like a great idea. You play as a Viet Cong soldier and suddenly you heard this and you started hallucinating. And when you die you see its just the US soldiers playing the tape
@@theemperorofmankind8082 That would be an mind boggling plot twist for those who have never heard of operation of Wandering Soul and I've never heard of any game where the horror is simply an illusion.
@@imlivingunderyourbed7845 this concept is actually quite common. Where the scares is just inside the head of the protagonist. For instance try the game cry of fear
@@theemperorofmankind8082 Well, The Dark Pictures Anthology: Man Of Medan is kinda like what you want
Americans and South Vietnamese: theres Charlie’s in the trees!
VC and NVA: theres ghosts in the trees!
And Koreans in the water.
@@ChrisCaramia Especially the Koreans. Koodos to the Koreans 🇰🇷
@@ChrisCaramia no, Koreans on the roof to protect the neighborhood
@@tompegorinno5141 yeah, the korean tiger division were flat out rapists but "kudos" to them
One of the greatest short films i've ever seen.
bro if you're a Vietnamese vet you must be scared shitless when you hear those sounds
May the victims of this cruel practice live in peace.
Let’s just ignore the fact NVA put bombs on kids and sent them to GIs
@@eastongentry6764 not all of them were bad
@@yaya-vz8uu I guess but, that doesn't excuse the fact that they still did horrors such as this.
@@eastongentry6764 Nice nitpicking right there. The US empire had no right to invade a sovereign people that wanted to get rid of their corrupt government. The US empire had no right to support that corrupt government and committing hundreds, if not thousands, of different war crimes from mistreatment of POWs to using chemical weapons on civillians. Your crimes cannot be compared to the "cruel" tactics a bunch of random independent guerillas did in the war. They defended their home from the invader. They will do so again, if necessary.
There’s a difference between what you’ve been told and what happened, I’m all for rebelling against authority and I hate the federal government. On the other hand there’s pol-pot. So uh. Yeah they defended their country by mass genocide? Because that’s totally how that works.
i just listened to the original tapes after this film and no joke it really gave me chills
Can you give link for the original tapes
Link
.
Just search it. "Operation wandering soul"
Rumor has it, a lot of the repeated words in the Vietnamese language in the tapes begin and end in “Sneed” which stands for life and death.
if you scream at the jungle, the jungle screams at you back.
Vietnamese people when the soil start speaking ghost:
Funny but a bit dark. Because they had a hard belief in respecting the dead
But it's history though the Vietnamese use speakers as sounds of "the dead" they might call tricked the US thinking that it's theirs fallen comrades
Nah it’s:
Vietnamese people when the soil start speaking English (English US) 😂😂😂😂😂😂
@@muneraalateeqi7919 Yikes. You sound like those bitter Americans, that got shookt by a bitter meme, that also can't shake off that bitter part of your war history. Good luck with that.
👁️👄👁️
bruh why am i watching this i’m going to Vietnam in 2 weeks
Ive been in nam for 3 months😂😂
Bruh ,you are an A-10 thunderbolt, what are you even afraid of
@@kevinglutton5997 lol point noted my friend 😂
Welcome, visit Hue for some amazing places, sights and some scrary story about war.
Welcome
I live jn 🇻🇳 bruh
That was fantastic! I came here from Tanner's new work, Decommisioned.
Have to say the acting is top class. The emotion and the tension really has you engrossed in the film.
It didn’t hit me until after watching that Dao never got to properly mourn/pray for Quan. One of the US troops picks up on this too and wants his sergeant to let him finish. Taking the Vietnamese beliefs into account, Quan didn’t get a proper burial, alluding to the idea that he will be a ‘Wandering Soul’. This makes the ending all the more heartbreaking..
The actors should deserve more recognition.. great acting! 100/10
Isn’t that the sound track the the Americans made to scare the Vietnamese
yes, it was scientifically designed to be one the most distressing sounds
It’s a funeral music, can be terrifying sometimes
It literally is
Xx F34R xX#2402 Yep, it’s called Ghost Tape 10. It’s here on UA-cam.
yes
This is so well done! I love it!
These acting skills are literally amazing, I got so scared
even for Vietnamese people, it's hard to hear what they say in this vid...
That's the point, this not what a real vn soldier is like. Sure, it works on a superstitious person, but a normal nva operative would shrug it off
It’s the northern people
công tiến thật chứ chả hiểu mấy ổng nòi j hết
The person in the ghost tape was talking to his daughter since shes dead and he’s with her now and the main part of his speaking is saying something about how the Vietnamese comrades should retreat bc they can’t win and saying the lines of the pain it hurts
I kinda sound like a nerd trust me
Why would a bro haunt a bro shittily like that, where is the love.
Exactly, he buries you out of respect and first thing you do is haunt him back
well if youre in a war, things get nasty, including trauma.
Your comment makes me laugh hard 🤣🤣🤣
Because it wasn't his bro!!!
Bro....
it amazes me how intricate and well built the underground city was. I call it a city because of its size and bc it had everything that a city would have.
