Cure

Righto. I can’t think the last time a movie has scared the beejezzus out of me, but Kyua (aka Cure) did. Kyua is a japanese thriller I rented from netflix. It stars the guy from Shall We Dance (the good japanese movie, not he junky hollywood version). It was able to watch about an hour of the movie, and then it just got too scary for me. If you want a murder mystery with a big dose of creepy, ritualistic killing, then this movie is for you. Enough of this. I’ve got to go reorder my netflix queue so something really cheery is #1.

  1. If that one was too scary for you, you need to try Kôrei (aka Seance) from the same director (Kyoshi Kurosawa — no relation, apparently). It also stars Kôji Yakusho. Scary as in ghosts, not as in ritualistic killing.

    Also from K. Kurosawa is Kairo (aka Pulse) which is in many ways the most disturbing of these three K. Kurosawa films. Kôji Yakusho is in it, but has a smaller part. Something evil from the internet comes out of young people’s computer monitors and makes terrible things happen.

    Gotta stop typing now…
