Directed by Koji Shiraishi, this Japanese horror movie uses pseudo-documentary and found footage tropes to follow a paranormal researcher who is investigating a string of mysterious occurrences for a documentary. Japanese movies are known for their superlative horror and this movie is no less. It adopts a slow-burn approach and is a terrifying found-footage movie.
