Páiric O'Corráin The Forest: US made but set mostly in Japan. US woman, Jess, goes missing in the Aokigahara Forest, where people go to commit suicide. Her Twin Sara rushes to Japan to find her. Many of the usual Japanese Horror Film Tropes with Angry Ghosts and Trickster Spirits, Yúrei. These Yúrei foll you into harming yourself rather than directly causing harm.With the aid of a forest ranger and an Ozzie travel writer Sara searches the forest but she is soon submerged in a world of dangerous illusion. Confusing at times, perhaps due to editing but ending suggests a sequel. 6/10.

eddyhate The movie is badly written, the plot twists are just dumb and are just there to make the bad writing go somewhere. to me this movie fails at so many levels it's hard to believe some people liked it. things just start bad and go nowhere and does not make you compassionate about the situation, i was more annoyed by the beginning of this movie. bad acting from the boyfriend, the dialogs are badly written and sometime just go nowhere, do nothing for the story and it's just boring, dumb and annoying, the main character just comes out as dumb and sad nothing more. JUST TELL ME WHY she goes with a stranger to that forest, why even trust a guy you don't know especially when you are looking for your missing sister. the actual action in the movie is STUPID, cut off a chicken head and let it go, that represent the action. the play between reality and the supernatural that happen is again really stupid and not very well used in this movie. the girl sees thing that aren't real and does not doubt for a second that it is real even after it happened lots f time that shows her that she's being tricked. Basically everything that happens in this movie is stupid and what happens is only there to put the main character in bad situations, if you take this movie and take out everything that could and would not be stupid and pointless, this movie would be about 30 minutes long and it would still be boring. the ending is predictable and boring dumb and just confirms that you've watched a really dumb boring movie. the only reason this movie still has people liking it, it's because of the quality of the filming and by that i mean they did take people who knew how to film good looking scenes, good angles etc... still the most interesting thing to watch in this movies is Miss dormer, beautiful woman but not good enough actress to give a great performance in a so badly made movie.

hulkt In all fairness it was an interesting movie, fair acting and a nice atmosphere although it lacks some scares.Also i could say there are few plotholes.Although i was disappointed at the end i kinda liked the twitst. Maybe killing them both would be more intriguing

By-TorX-1 Given the incredibly creepy nature of the infamous Suicide Forest in Japan, it is a pity that this film fails to utilise its tragic mise-en- scene, but it does, badly. Like many other reviewers, I'm not fully clear exactly what happens in this film beyond the interminable jump-scare ending dream sequences (and an over-reliance on such scenes is always a sure sign of creative bankruptcy in a horror film) and the sub-Ringu forest wraith who keeps popping up hither and thither. As said, the creepy factor should have been set to 10 in this film given the forest setting (and the poignant fact that the Suicide Forest is all too real). However, the film loses focus in terms of the desperate search for the missing sister and just drifts away into a pointless and bizarre 'psycho killer' angle, and then peters out into an unclear conclusion. Hence, as the final scene fades with a daft CGI 'scare', the viewer is ultimately left with a film that is both unsatisfying and disappointing. Although, for me, the film's biggest shock is not the mournful forest and its lost souls, but that it took three writers to pen a script that does not really make any sense or have any narrative impact. Now that is scary.
