Customer Reviews: Total numer of reviews: 7 Average rating: 3.0 "pretty good movie" I though shikoku was pretty decent, it's not that scary, but there are some creepy scenes and it does invoke fright. If your a big Japanese horror film fan then this movie is worth buying, but if not I wouldn't recommend it to you. "Dizzy!!!" I think this film was made with the same camera techniques as The Blair Witch. The constantly moving camera made me sick to my stomach and very dizzy. The grainy look also made it look cheap. Wish I could throw this one back to the sharks. What a waste of money! "I LOVE THIS MOVIE" This movie had Kuriyama Chiaki from Kill Bill...and this is a very great movie that i had to own it...otherwise...a story that will get you going.... "Shikoku a good scary movie" A story of friendship and about how Hinako finds herself sexually attracted to Fumiya. They're both startled when Sayori's spirit a gateway to a path of darkness a myserious ride of hell this film is dark and forboding and a rollercoaster ride ,it will scareyou that what its about work the story Sayori (Chiaki Kuriyama), the daughter of the village's spiritual leader, died in a mysterious drowning accident with leads to downward spiral to get to the meat of the story a scarefest and enjoyable movie highly recommend it. "I agree more with Zack's review" This film, while definitely not action packed, is still definitely worth watching if you research the film a little first to understand some of the symbolism. I agree that at times this movie is drawn out and slow, but the twist with Fumiya at the end made the movie worthwhile for me. I think Sayori's hate inspiring jealousy could of been more developed in the story line, but i thought the ending wrapped everything up nicely. This is not a movie I personally would recommend to someone who wasn't a die-hard Japanese cinema fan, although I did enjoy it.
