Black Daruma

Absolutely love the quirkiness and style of this film!! A breath of fresh air! Horror with humour! An amazing combination. Didn't want it to end. I've watched this several times already, filmed in Sheffield too which as a Sheffield girl, is a bonus. You really never know what's coming next with this one. It has highs, lows, humour, scares, what more can you pack into a film. Very quirky the way it is filmed through the eyes of the doll too. I love the Watts brothers style, it's not your average run of the mill expected movie experience. It's great to see new unexpected actors involved, instead of big names too.

This is a really interesting take on the found footage style film. It's technically a POV film, but the POV is a seemingly inanimate object for most of the movie.

It's definitely unique within the genre, and the performances and tension were really well executed. It's a delicate balance because especially the lead role could easily go too broad and become silly, but there's a commitment to the central premise of the story that makes it work. Also, the dynamic between the husband and wife is fraut with really effective tension and anxiety.

I had a really good time with this one and will be interested to see what these brothers make next.

There's no nice way to put it; this movie is terrible. It's not interesting at all. The characters aren't engaging and nothing really happens. Ithe main character is extremely annoying and the entire movie is annoying and boring. I was ready to shut it off within the first minute but thought it would improve at some point. It drug on and on and never went anywhere. I need more than two hundred more characters for this review but have already said enough about how terrible this film is. There is nothing remotely entertaining or redeeming about it. I'm even more annoyed that after sitting through such a bad film, I have a minimum of 500 characters to leave a review.

You're forced into seeing with the doll's eyes but from who's eyes is the story more horrifying? The doll, the guy or his other half?

After an off kilter start to the film, seeing their desperate descent into a broken reality was pretty sobering as someone who has experienced psychosis.

The cringe and comedy in watching someone lose their mind is both entertaining, and nauseating as it evolves.

Still rattled by the ending and think this one will stay with me longer than I'd like.

Not sure I'll reccomend it as it disturbed me so much, but that's probably a sign of a good psychological horror movie haha!

If we held a competition offering £100,000 to anyone who could make a movie worse than this one, no one would win the competition.

I'm sorry, but this isn't even a movie, it's a video. Nothing happens in the movie, nothing. You're just watching the behavior of a sick, low iq dude. You think interesting things will happen in the first scene of the movie, but nothing significant happens. It's so boring. Also, there are so many different features about the Daruma doll but they never thought of using any of them.

I don't know who shot the movie, but maybe cinema isn't the best job for you. Please don't make any more movies.
