Movie Reviews
Reviews:
"[T]here is something nifty about the movie’s underlying notion that the Aokigahara can induce in its visitors a kind of psychotic madness, one partly rooted in the very real pain of their unresolved traumas." - 01/07/2016 Variety
"[A] decently executed creeper built around a convincing performance by Natalie Dormer..." - 01/07/2016 New York Times
"This movie does a nice job of exploring what fear can do to us, and how determination to overcome our fears can lead us to make poor decisions." - 01/07/2016 Chicago Sun-Times
"[T]he dense forest setting, substituting Serbia for Japan, creates a broodingly ominous atmosphere all its own..." - 01/07/2016 Hollywood Reporter
