Watch Ju-On: White Ghost For Free

Overrated and overhyped

How sad is this?

Am i the only one who thinks........Average?

This is a coming of age storyline that you've seen in one form or another for decades. It takes a truly unique voice to make yet another one worth watching.

Format: Amazon Prime - Language: Japanese (English Subtitled) Released: 2009Director: Ryut MiyakeStarring: Hiroki Suzuki, Ichirota Miyakawa, Naysuki KasaWhere to start? Well it's short, which is a blessing! To be strictly fair to the film it does start out well enough, with the initial building up of tension that I have come to expect from Japanese horror films; then sadly, rather then building on the initial success, the whole thing falls apart.Ju-On: White Ghost is the story of a house that was the location of a brutal mass murder. The film consists of a series of short segments, each one showcasing the history of a different character and setting out why they eventually come to their various unfortunate ends, as well as giving the background to the murders.As a direct to DVD film it is very low budget and it shows, badly. Yet for all the appallingly bad and cringe-worthy acting there are occasional moments of great, outstanding performance; for all the unbelievably poor stories there are some strong, genuinely creepy tales.At an hour long it is worth sitting though the rubbish mainly because when this film gets it right, even with the cringe fest that some of the actors put us through, it delivers some genuine scares. It just unfortunate that director, Ryuta Miyake, comes across as not having the slightest clue about how to make/direct a film.Like this film this is really all I can think of to say on the matter, short and pretty much lacking in any direction.

Akane begins seeing visions of a female ghost wearing the same yellow hat and red satchel she wore as a school child. The Ju-On film series is probably the worst horror series i have seen and the movies are just neither scary or even at least a bit fun to say the least. Their dull, boring and just a huge waste of time and money since neither of them offer anything new except some new faces and new names other than that their the same exact horribly mess of movies that don't do anything new or offer any actual originality as a whole i'm afraid and that's bad.

Even tho "White ghost" does provide some very, but very tensioned moments, I found it hard to take it seriously. I mean, after watching it, it's rather difficult to say that this one is worthy of a grade over 6, cause let's face it, for a cheesy Asian fun, it does the job, but if you in for some real scares with a over the top plot and development, "White ghost" looks like a cartoon!Again, don't get me wrong, dunno how, but when I saw it, it scared me out of my mind, cause the execution is very good, but if they were able to put it on screen like this, why didn't they try harder on the script part? Get a decent idea, make use of it, and put your name up there, with the rest of Asia's greater horrors! They did everything better than most such films, again, the plot is what killed it for me. Check it out and you'll see what I'm talking about!Cheers!

All I can tell about this movie is poorly done. I didn't even get a little tense during the plays of this movie.The director seems like preferred to do bloody scene rather than the horror scene. I can tell you that his taste is definitely doesn't fit with the Ju-oN franchise. Also, what the heck with the old lady holding a basketball? Her appearance was just a gags. The only original ghost that appeared in this movie was Toshio, for a little 5 sec. Where is Kayako? Where is Takeo?No crawling, no scary croaking. A big disappointment for a super Ju-oN fans.
