Noroi (1/5)

Noroi is being marketed "as a true story wherein everyone died." Blair Witch-style, it claims to document the disappearance of psychic hunter Masafumi Kobayashi as he investigated a series of bizarre events. Armed with just a low-res video camera, Kobayashi goes around Japan interviewing bug-eyed crazies and tinfoil-garbed loons for afternoon TV wide shows. He's on the trail of an ancient curse and the fabled "kagutaba," something about crying babies, knotted ropes, bats in the belfry, aliens in the attic, and all the usual sci-fi horror nonsense. Director Koji Shiraishi makes the mistake of shooting the entire shenanigans in Shakicam. There's hardly a moment when the cruddy image, either grainy video or cheesy TV quality, isn't jiggling and wobbling before your eyes. There's hardly a scary moment in the proceedings, but thanks to the jerky camera, plenty of chances to get seasick and lose your lunch.

Eh... Why'd you use "wapanese" there? This film is Japanese therefore intended for Japanese viewers, not wapanese...
