Shirome (2010) watch online HD

Shirome is about a group of girls that are in a pop group and their manager decides for more publicity that they should film them going to a school that supposedly has evil spirits and has killed numerous people who have visited there.

The documentary side of this is great however I was honestly a bit let down by some of the scares, however it does have a lot of tense moments where you're wondering what will happen next. No issues with the acting either it was all great as well.

Those coming to this title after witnessing the magnificence of Noroi however will be strongly disappointed like I was. I can't really recommend this to anyone for that reason because the scare scenes are honestly kind of weak and the film stinks of low budget which isn't a bad thing but not a good thing in the case of this film.

This is only worth watching if you're a hardcore hand-camera horror type person or staged documentary types. To the average horror movie watcher you will probably hate this movie. I won't watch it again but i'll recommend it to others who love the genre cause maybe they will find something they like in it.

(Spoilers contained herein are quite mild, and should not interfere significantly with one's enjoyment of this film, but as a courtesy I am noting there is some slight potential for spoilage, for those who want to go into this film without knowing anything about it...in which case, you should probably eschew reading its reviews altogether, LOL.) Anyhoo, this 2010 release is Koji Shiraishi's third "found footage"/mockumentary-style horror film (after the phenomenal 2005 feature, "Noroi: The Curse," and the lesser-but-still-excellent "Occult," from 2009), and while its the least of the the three, its still a perfectly adequate and entirely enjoyable film.

A very peculiar (and highly clever & original) aspect of this film's production is that the principal stars ie., the members of the Japanese "Idol"-type band called "Momoiro Clover," think they are appearing on an episode of a haunted house-themed "reality"-TV show, rather than an actual horror film. These very characteristically feminine (indeed, to an extent that is a bit silly at times, to Western eyes), Japanese teenage girls are, shall we say, very fertile soil indeed in which to plant the seeds of fear (I think it would be fair to say this movie contains too much screaming, but the fact the screams are the product of their clearly delicate emotional natures, rather than acting, makes it more tolerable than would otherwise be the case).

Anyhoo, as you can well imagine, the poor little girls are totally unaware that there is a cinematic special effects team working its (low-budget) magic out of sight, and thus their visit to the "Shirome" shrine, at an abandoned school, winds up being a much more frightening experience than they had doubtless bargained for, ROFL! There is one scene, at the very end of the film, where one of the girls (you should have very little difficulty ascertaining which one) is in on Mr. Shiraishi's big joke (he plays himself, as ostensibly the director of an episode of a "reality" television program), and terrifies her band mates, as the film's somewhat dark finale draws to a close.

All in all, I'd say this is a good movie, and if you enjoy "found footage"-type horror films (as I do), or are more generally interested in Japanese horror (or perhaps the specific works of Koji Shiraishi), then you should make it a point to seek this out.
