Just so you know it is based off a series from japan that is pretty popular over there ( alot of spin off stuff ).

Was alright. Some stuff in the movie didn't make sense, and there were a lot of loose ends. There's a Korean version of the movie which is much scarier than the American version, and the Japanese version is much scarier than the Korean version. They changed some stuff, like the Japanese and Korean versions didn't have all that stuff about the horses. The ending was also kinda lame in the American version compared to the Asian versions.

I saw it. I was all ready for a really scary movie, but it was kinda lame.
It's not that parts of the movie didn't make sense, it's just that they didn't explain it very well.

I rather liked it. The plot was simple and flexible. I mean flexible in the sense that the creators and writers leave out a lot of detail and allow the viewer to fill in the spaces.
This is a classic suspenseful horror flic that can scare the shit out of you if you have a vivid imagination.
Not recommended for people tripping!!!

I have a great imagination, but it didn't scare me too much, the ending did make me want to get the rest of the series though. You should check out kingdom, for a horror movie its kind of scarry. I just personally don't get scared from movies though, it was a good movie, I just doubt if anyone can make a movie that scares me. I wouldn't watch it tripping, it would probably scare me than, I get scared by a trip without movies, on higher doses it can be like that, but without the movie.

> You should check out kingdom, for a horror movie its kind of scarry.
Thanks for the reference. I'm not a huge fan of horror movies anymore, but I was compelled to watch "The Ring." Something about technology killing you just appeals to me...
I've become a huge fan of comedic flics. I find laughter a much more appealing mode of energy as opposed to the energies created by horror films. And this ultimately stems from my experience with entheogens and my new relationship with nature.
> I just doubt if anyone can make a movie that scares me.
Don't laugh, but "The Blair With Project" (the first one) SCARED THE SHIT OUT OF ME! It had to of been the theatre that I watched it in; it was a small theatre, late at night, and with only a few people...so it was a great environment to get the shit scared out of you! I also have this unrelenting fear of the woods at night...something I would like to work on and overcome.
