Review of Noroi

Noroi (2005)
7/10
Complex and Interesting Mockumentary
7 May 2020
This Japanese horror mockumentary was a lot of fun to watch. It has a very complex story with a lot of pieces that come together at the end. The acting seems real and the story, once we get to the end, mostly makes sense.

I feel like the story is told well, but it isn't a very scary story. The monster is menacing, but not terrifying. The end is tragic, but not shocking.

This follows the general issue with this genre that the more realistic the less scary the movie will be. I know I enjoyed this movie a lot, because I had to think a lot about the story after it was done and it was fun to do so. Most loose ends were tied up. Most things that happen early on are resolved at the end.

I recommend this movie.
