"POV ~Norowareta Film ~" Japanese Theatrical Poster

It had to happen sometime. The Japanese horror genre appears to have gone all Blair Witch Project and Cloverfield on us with a new film titled POV ~Norowareta Film~. The good news is POV actually looks like it could be a lot of fun. The film just hit Japanese theaters on February 18th and Far East Films has the trailer.

In the movie, two high school girls set out to capture physic phenomena on film and soon discover strange things afoot in their own school. The trailer trots out the usual J-horror tropes like creepy female ghosts but seems to deliver it in a fresh way thanks to the unique video camera-style cinematography. A more detailed synopsis of the plot is available at the link.
