Spidersecu Don't Believe the Hype

InformationRap This is one of the few movies I've ever seen where the whole audience broke into spontaneous, loud applause a third of the way in.

pointyfilippa The movie runs out of plot and jokes well before the end of a two-hour running time, long for a light comedy.

Melanie Bouvet The movie's not perfect, but it sticks the landing of its message. It was engaging - thrilling at times - and I personally thought it was a great time.

stylegamer First of all i am not Japanese and i watched this movie recently with English subtitles. Over the years i have watched horror movies the The Ring and shutter and this movie isn't a rehash of the stuff released earlier. It tells the story of an urban legend and a ghoul that only has the upper part of its body and moves fast on its arms. Teke Teke finally offers up something beyond the long haired girl that seems to take up the spot of every ghost in Asian cinema. Not only is the long hair gone but so are the legs as Teke Teke is an urban legend of a ghost who is missing her legs. In the film they say that if you cross the train tracks after dark you'll hear Teke Teke behind you. If you turn around she'll slice you neatly in half and even if you manage to escape you'll still die 3 days later. And so goes Teke Teke.The visual imagery here is genuinely creepy and although it takes a familiar Asian horror setting and premise,it still manages to give it a new dose of horror by combining elements of a creature flick. It is not so often we see a movie with a fast moving ghost but still retain the same slow brooding tense atmosphere that we all crave. However the film is not without its flaws. Although the horror scenes were exceptionally filmed, the other scenes depicting the every day scenarios could have been better in terms of cinematographer. It gives the visual sense of amateur cinematography and live sound being combined in the film.Other than having some minor flaws,It's not the greatest horror work around but it is at least trying to offer something different. With some much needed gore added and a nicely done ghost, the movie manages to beat out a lot of the other offerings. the film is worth watching and be sure not to miss it as u will enjoy this one in a dark room .

8thSin This film has two dimensions, as an idol movie and a horror movie. Typically these two do not mix, but it did for me in this case.Teketeke is an urban legend of a woman with no lower body who chops anyone who turns around into half.Ooshima Yuuko, the girl who played the leading role is in AKB48, a ridiculously large (48 members) idol band, but her acting was very good, just like Maeda Atsuko in "How to Become Myself", a fellow AKB48 member. Of course, she's very cute, but what I really liked about her was her unique voice. Although AKB48 is an extremely stupid band that releases really horrible songs in my opinion, I am looking forward to more movies starring its members."Teketeke" is a typical Japanese horror movie. It's scary, but not so much that I can't sleep at night. Girls get chopped into half, but not overly gory and gross. Just perfect for me in every way. All the victims being really beautiful women and cute girls is an added bonus. The people who made this movie must have been pervs, but I must also be a perv too for liking it.The balance of horror (scary parts) and everyday life (introduction, mourning, researching on the monster etc) was perfect. Overall great direction and production that maintains the suspense throughout the film.This movie may not stand out among hundreds of other Japanese horror movies, but it's my absolute favorite.
