Andrew Murray The Upcoming 6d
3/5
With The Curse, Ugana revives classic J-horror for a new generation to mixed results. Although the blend of comedy and horror doesn’t quite work, its nostalgic and genuinely unnerving throwbacks to Ringu are guaranteed to delight fans. Go to Full Review

3/5
The Curse might spend more time buffering around than it does delivering the actual goods, but it’s a fun modernisation of J-horror tropes. Go to Full Review
