ACACIA

Acacia is a 2003 South Korean horror movie directed by Park Ki-hyeong and starring Shim Hye-jin and Kim Jin-geun.

Mi-sook and Do-il are a couple who wants to conceive a child but they can not. One day Mi-sook meets a six year old boy in an orphan and they decide to adopt him. The kid looks somewhat strange and mournfully quiet, but he soon finds a place in their hearts and they welcome him in their family. The boy, however, seems to have an unsettling connection to an Acacia tree they have in front of their house. When everything seems to be going well, it suddenly turns out that Mi-sook is pregnant. Her mother immediately ignores the kid because she thinks he is not her real grandson. When the baby is born the kid starts to act more strange and he even tries to kill the baby. All the tension soon will take the family to an unexpected breaking point.
