If you loved Noroi: The Curse, try Ura Horror
A bridge between a film you've already seen and one most people haven't. Ura Horror has roughly 29.9× fewer votes than Noroi: The Curse — it's a deeper cut, not a mainstream recommendation. Here's what they share, and what the second one does that the first one doesn't.
What they share
Both films are directed by Koji Shiraishi, and they sit in Horror / Mystery territory. If that's the register that drew you to Noroi: The Curse, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.
What Ura Horror is
Snow crunches under a cracked camcorder in Hokkaido’s woods, 1995. Two crews vanish while filming separate documentaries—a yōkai legend, then a UFO cult. Their tapes surface, jittery with static and something breathing behind the lens. Found footage that makes you unplug the VCR and back slowly away.
