Noroi: The Curse
No Longer Playing
2005 115 min
In Japanese with English subtitles
An ambitious journalist enters a supernatural world that’s darker and more disturbing than he ever could have imagined in Koji Shiraishi’s masterpiece Noroi: The Curse. An outstanding example of both the J-horror and found footage subgenres, Noroi barely made a ripple in the West when it was first released in 2005. But this is one seriously creepy movie and its legend has continued to grow, infecting everyone who sees it like the evil presence at the center of the film. Are you brave enough to encounter Noroi on a super-rare 35mm print, flown into Chicago all the way from Tokyo?
