Audience Member Plot is nonsensical, but the atmosphere is really interesting and held my interest throughout. Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/15/23 Full Review Audience Member Not sure why all the hate on this one. The concept was interesting and the way they mixed different timelines back and forth throughout the movie definitely made the story development more intense than if they had done a more linear style story. I can definitely say that they definitely resorted to a few gags that were better suited to 3D for the scares, but they are still somewhat effective in 2D as well. The special effects made for some great creepy shots but it isn't hard to spot the CGI. The atmosphere was my fav part since it takes place in an actual haunted house (for the most part) which is better than the usual residential style horror. It is a fun ride of a movie. If you enjoy the creepy aspect of Asian horror, this is definitely worth a watch.

Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/31/23 Full Review lovro h What a misleading title... I've bought this movie knowing nothing about it (except the 3 sentence synopsis at the back of the DVD box) and thus I didn't know what to expect and I was still heavily dissapointed... The story is quite interesting, though. It's about 4 friends who have lost a friend 10 years ago, but that friend now mysteriously returns and some secrets about the past are revealed. Although it's obvious there's a twist ending, it's still a suprise when it happens, even though the twist is quite illogical. The movie is made to be seen in 3D. There's many 3D scenes which look very odd when you watch the 2D version and just plain stupid. Speaking of stupid, there are some really, really cheap CGI effects, as well as some really bad acting which ruins a lot of the movie. Another problem, perhaps the biggest, is that the movie is not scary at all. It can get creepy, but then something happens that ruins that initial feeling. For example, there's this creepy scene with mannequins coming to life and there's a stupid scene with a girl jumping on a guy 3 times in a row. It's easier to know what I'm talking about after watching the movie for yourself. The atmosphere is pretty neat. There are some really well designed set pieces. I can't speak much more of this movie as it really isn't worth talking about this much. All in all, a highly dissapointing Japanese horror movie with no scares, no good acting, but an intriguing story, albeit illogical. I wouldn't recommend checking this movie out. Rated 2.5/5 Stars •  Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review Audience Member The Shock Labyrinth Movie Review! Oh my god. I came in ready to completely hate this movie due to the bad rating that Netflix gave it. But no. I am completely perplexed as to how I feel about this movie. The premise is thus: We see some children entering an undefined place. Then we cut to several teenagers who suddenly see the return of a long lost friend (by the looks of it). Hi-jinks ensue. The movie is definitely not for those who are expecting a straightforward answer. There is much confusion and questions that sometimes are not thoroughly explained the best of ways. To me, this is a very artsy movie; and not a bad one at that. The acting is decent, the visuals are great (until some little parts) and the story-line is more than impressive. You may argue that you can walk away not understand the finale, but if you pay attention, you can walk out lightly doubting. Even I did. As much as I liked it, I will not deny the confusion is overwhelming. And humanely, it can be annoying to be so lost. But I digress. I give this movie a 8 out of 10. (4 stars.) Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/21/23 Full Review Audience Member Production was awful but the storyline was great! It kept me curious until the end. Never very scary though (one scene at the end was suspenseful). Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/17/23 Full Review Read all reviews
