This is the Sickest Found Footage Horror Film Ever
There's no shortage of found footage movies out there, and truth be told, it's understandable if some people are feeling burnt out on the whole style. These films — usually within the horror genre — aim to make things feel more realistic by presenting events as if they truly happened. This often makes found footage movies feel like mockumentaries in a way, given they "document" a series of events as if they're real.
Kobayashi appears on-screen, despite being The Curse's director, playing a central figure within his documentary the same way great documentary filmmakers like Michael Moore and — to a slightly lesser extent — Werner Herzog are seen to do in real life. He investigates instances of paranormal activity and interviews those who claim to have witnessed such events in the flesh.
But focusing on Noroi: The Curse specifically, it's justifiably Shiraishi's most well-regarded film because of how brutally effective it is when utilizing the whole format of found footage.
Sustained tension and dread are the name of the game when it comes to Noroi: The Curse, too. It does have some grisly scenes towards the end, but builds to them expertly and with restraint, making it a remarkably subtle movie within a genre where subtlety isn't often seen .
