this review contains some small and yet significant and spoilers.  i just finished watching my copy of noroi. and it was great. this might sound cheesy and but several times during the film i forgot it wasn not real xd the acting is convincing and although the acting from masafumi kobayashi (playing himself and i think. ) seems a bit hokey at times. marika matsumoto (yuka in takashi shimizu rinne) seemed to change levels of believability throughout the movie represent sometimes she really good and then the next moment she really cheesy (especially at the end exorcism and subsequent re possession. a character that was ridiculous at first was mr. hori and a man covered in tinfoil believing ectoplasmic worms are coming to eat everyone. he provides unintentional comic relief at the beginning (acting like the stereotypical alien abduction type victim) but near the end has some really creepy scenes. the plot was very interesting and really kept me wondering how everything tied together. there are some things that aren not really explained (like a mass suicide in a tokyo park and where the reincarnated kagutaba boy came from) but everything else turned out fine. the ending has got to be one of the most unnerving and if not the scariest and sequences i have ever had the pleasure to witness. all in all and noroi is a very fun way to spend 2 hours and the new hong kong r3 dvd provides great picture and sound (most importantly the english subtitles engrish free. ) for a great j horror experience. i highly recommend picking it up.
