Inunaki, le village oublié

This is a weak film. Starts really well but then just becomes uninteresting with too much non-convincing drama, too much talk, very predictable scares/deaths and lack of connection between scenes.

What's worst here is that I can feel that this story could have been a great film, as everything about the village is really creepy.

It's possible for a movie to be both effective and kind of a mess at the same time, and in my books, this describes Howling Village. A few cool, genuinely creepy scenes mixed in with some muddled storytelling. Some good effects, some cheesy ones. More time spent in the titular village would've been a bonus. Overall, not a horror classic but not a waste of time, either. Worth a watch.

Not as bad as alot of people say. There were alot of scary moments which give you great goosebumps but visually it was weak. It could have been more scarier visually. Overall good horror flick comparing to the modern horror releases. Give it a try!!

If you compare it to what Hollywood is churning out. Some form of family/friends entering a new home and facing horror, then this one is a refreshing change to that pattern.

Here the story is somewhere in Japan. Some teenagers visit a forgotten and hard to find place named Howling Village. There's the anticipation there exist ghosts. To their surprise the teenagers found out, that this is exactly the case. Pretty scary ones as well, so they ran in panic away, but the girl which was courageous amd funny until then, couldn't shake away the experience she just had. Not long later she commits suicide and her boyfriend wants revenge a d turns back to the place. He goes missing and that sets in a chain of events that are not very friendly to the town...

Some creepy parts and the story is interesting throughout the movie. The ghost town is a nice idea and there's a twist in the end that might not be your thing.

Easy to understand. I'm not sure what all the other reviews were talking about in that regard. The story line was interesting, but overall it wasn't the most exciting movie. I didn't find it so much a horror as more a thriller. Overall i did enjoy the movie slightly, and I'm not mad I watched it, but if you're looking for something scary this really isn't the watch for you. The characters weren't stupid per say, but there was some moments where I wanted to yell at them.
