Ousama Game (2011)

Well, let's begin with the fact that I love horror, especially when it's about legends or games, like in this case. So I obviously loved the idea of the movie and in the beginning was really enjoyable with all those orders and choices that the characters had to endure. The first tier of the movie was really good and I really wanted to know how it would continue and how it would answer to all the questions I had in mind. After that it's a free fall. The whole development was getting more and more ridiculous and some things didn't even make sense (a character acting as if he was injured even though he wasn't, the WHOLE school was available at for the characters, at night, so that they could do whatever they wanted, the teacher appeared just a few times, as if she wasn't necessary in a classroom, etc.) and some questions weren't even answered. The ending was kinda good though.

The acting wasn't bad. It was horrible. You couldn't even think that they were actually acting seriously except for a few scenes. And the characters were all empty. The character development was almost inexistent.

The music was pretty good, I would say, except for that happy ending song that didn't even seem to belong to the kind of sad ending the movie had. I was just asking myself "Why?" while hearing it.

Overall, it's a movie that had an awesome idea and started off pretty well, despite the horrible acting, but when the things started to be "creepy" it just fucked up and couldn't go on.

Oh, and IT IS NOT A HORROR MOVIE. It just could feel like one from the summary but isn't one at all.
