Fumi A @Lordoflords Nov 2, 2025 Very spooky movie. People don't respect it enough! See more Madoka A @RT95510435 Jun 23, 2025 Fantastic. Spooky. Funny. Great product! Really good! See more Reenie S @RT84630265 Jun 5, 2025 What started off as an interesting Asian ghost movie, became long, drawn out and boring. I didn't care about any of the people involved, which is usually one thing that will make a movie like this interesting. The main character was, forgive me, unattractive. Every woman he comes in contact with goes gaga over him to the point of forgiving him, even for trying to kill their child. The end was so tedious and unbelievable. If you want to watch a truly remarkable "Kaidan," check out the 1964 movie. It was nominated for an Academy Award for a justifiable reason. It's filmed like a piece of art, beautifully acted and with compelling stories. See more Laura S @Lauraqueen Mar 17, 2025 Great horror movie! I love how creepy it is!

Well worth watching. Great ghost story in the Japanese tradition! See more Jun 27, 2011 The worst paced movie of all time? Maybe. Marketed as a creepy ghost movie in the vein of Ringu, (same director) Kaidan is a disturbing drama with a few good creepy scenes, but most of it feels like it takes forever to get to the point. The main character is a nice guy, so nice that women want him. The daughter of a cursed man vows that if he ever marries after she dies, she'll come back to kill his loved ones. And she does. Many times. The whole movie is her screwing this guy over and over, and he never seems to be able to dodge a relationship. I hated the actor's face. He had these bug eyes and was not very sympathetic, since he went around screwing with any female in proximity. The pace is ultra slow, the first quarter being a love story to set up the curse, the rest is 90 minutes of tragedy with a ridiculous but entertaining fight scene at the end. A highly unsatisfying film all around, Ringu this is not. See more Read all reviews
