Review of Noroi: The Curse (2005) by Jessi T — 30 Oct 2010

An excellent, if not lengthy, use of the documentary-style horror as a means of relating a story. In traditional storytelling methods this film's story, involving an angry demon and a cursed town, would have seemed run-of-the-mill and formulaic.

The hand-held aspect works marvelously to add to the intrigue of the film, as you proceed to uncover information along with the viewer's avatar in the film, Kobayashi. Definitely one that will stay with you.
