Found Footage Movies Like Noroi: The Curse

15 hand-picked films

Noroi: The Curse is the last documentary of a missing paranormal journalist: TV clips, interviews and his own footage of odd incidents that slowly connect.

It was made before the found footage boom and relies on patience and atmosphere rather than shaky cameras. These films give you more fake documentaries, curses and webs of strange events, starting with two more by its director, Koji Shiraishi.
