(I’ll try to keep the spoilers to a minimum)

What promised to be a fun friendship filled Pokemon adventure turned out to be a horror movie with not even a mention of a haunter. I was kind of expecting this, though hoping for it to not be the case. Anyways the movie itself was actually pretty decent all be it fast, although I don’t think that this is a completely negative point. The speed makes the movie makes it feel like the story is unfolding rapidly and it really makes the movie feel like this whole thing is the climax of a much larger story.

The movie starts out with the “rebellious teenage girl” archetype, she also plays a clarinet which you never really see in movies, being trapped in the movie groundhog’s day. She lives the same day with her family who are conveniently oblivious to this. She spends a while trying to figure out what’s going and through the use of a Ouija Board, she actually manages to find out that she is in fact dead and is being tormented by a much more powerful ghost who had a hand in her death. This all happens in the first part of the movie and happens fairly rapidly. The rest of the movie his her trying to convince her family that they too are dead, saving a girl from falling into the same fate, and freeing her family from the evil dead guy.

This is a pretty decent movie, if you like fast paced movies this one is a good movie for you.

Awards:

An actually decent horror movie

Got away with the name Haunter (Nintendo is pretty touchy when it comes to their intellectual property)
