Watch Hide and Go Kill 2 For Free

One of my all time favorites.

Good story, Not enough for a whole film

I like movies that are aware of what they are selling... without [any] greater aspirations than to make people laugh and that's it.

Like the great film, it's made with a great deal of visible affection both in front of and behind the camera.

HIDE AND GO KILL 2 is another slice of shot-on-video horror from Japan, a film which is almost indistinguishable from the first. Once again it's an Internet-themed story about a sinister online game of hide and seek in which participants are killed by a long-haired ghost girl.The main problem with these films is their lack of originality and as with the first this is nothing more than a straight rip-off of JU-ON: THE GRUDGE and its sequel. It's a dark, low key story set in just a couple of locations by the look of it in which the director makes much of atmosphere building and shadowed rooms.The amount of incident in the plot is very small so it's a surprise to find out that this is a fairly long movie. It does feel very repetitive and slow, and it didn't really grab my attention at all.

If your into J-horror or any of it's kind, this is a great watch if you can get your hands on a copy, you may have to order online. Well, I stumbled upon this nicely woven film on an Asian horror film website, I must admit, very well done. It doesn't have any cheesy scares and I'm surprised that Hollywood hasn't adapted this film yet, and utterly ruined it like they always do.The film starts out with a group of teenagers playing a new game of hide and seek, except the players are playing hide and seek with a ghost. Very entertaining. The only other review on this site said that we don't get any fake scare scenes, like Hollywood does to us all the time.(I'm just summing up his/her review) But, He/She is right on the money with the review, we don't see any stupid cat jumping onto the window sill here, all we get is full on creepiness. This is a good thing. Along with all the intrigue in between. I wasn't once bored watching this film. It's a great idea. The characters are brief but interesting, the scenes are well directed and the score of the film is eerie.(as it should be). It seems to be shot on medium quality film, and the scenes are well rehearsed and directed, along with the high quality acting. I'm so surprised that I'm only the second person writing a review on this film. This is sad considering the garbage that is coming out of Hollywood these days, you would think that this title would be more widespread amongst the world. (But hopefully not in a Sam Raimi piece of crap re-imaging, like The Grudge)I give this film 8 out of 10, because it's something you can sink your teeth into, if your in the mood of a well rounded ghost story. The acting is decent, the camera work is precise, and the storyline is inventive. Thanks to all the people who made this film. Hopefully Hollywood could take some lessons from all the people who were involved.Thanks for reading,Jeffrey J Turner Sarnia Ontario Canada

Ever imagine what it would be like to play hide and seek with a ghost? Well, you're about to find out in this solid creepfest from our friends in the Far East. I hate writing plot summaries, but given the fact that this is the very first IMDb review of this film, I'll do you a favor. Basically, the protagonists play the hide and seek game alone in their homes or apartments, but communicate with each other via computer and/or cell phone text messaging. Each character performs a pre-game ritual to call forth a ghost, then hides from it to experience the thrill of having a ghost rummage through their residence. If the ritual is not performed in a very precise manner, the person is murdered when the ghost finds them. This movie follows the hide and seek games of various characters.This is vintage J-horror with all the positive characteristics that one expects from filmmakers who don't seem to care at all about the short attention spans of mainstream cinephiles. The opening scene is an accurate representation of the entire film: very quiet and deliberately paced with an overwhelmingly ominous mood. Such is the case from start to finish in this no nonsense genre outing that just relentlessly piles on the gloom and doom. Like "Nightmare Detective 2" (2008) and "Ju On: The Grudge" (2003), "Creepy Hide and Seek" is jam-packed with sequences that move as slow as molasses in January but are nevertheless gripping and entertaining.There are a few effective jump scares tossed in for good measure, but these aren't "fake" scares because they occur in situations of real danger. The onryo (aka ghost girl) makes some appearances, but the pre-game rituals (involving dolls, salt water, rice, etc.) contribute some welcome novelty and help this movie to carve out its own niche. The scoring is also fantastic and likely the strongest element.I personally love stuff like this. No obnoxious characters, no superfluous filler material, no comedy, no fake jump scares, no flash editing, no teenie bopper dialogue, and – most importantly – no cheap attempts to "keep the audience awake." There's nothing worse than being deprived of being fully absorbed into a horrific atmosphere than having the filmmaker insert a loud "BOOM" or chuck in some cheap sex talk to "liven things up." No thank you, dear sir. I'm one of those moviegoers who likes to be systematically worn down and beaten to a pulp by unyielding, ruthless dreariness. Too bad most American filmmakers are too timid to go the distance.
