Horror Icon 'Ghost Train' may not be too scary, but still maintains the feel of a good J-Horror movie. Set mainly in the Tokyo subways, Ghost Train surrounds the mystery of a lost train ticket dropped by a woman named Yaeko Aonuma. When Nana Kimura's younger sister finds the ticket and disappears in the subway, she begins learning more about Yaeko Aonuma and searches for conductors and train engineers who may have knowledge of this spirit. 'Ghost Train' is actually very engaging and fun to watch. The CGI may have been awful towards the end of the movie, but before then, it's not really noticeable. Many similarities to 'Ringu' or 'The Ring', so if you like those, it's probably worth watching. Special mention to Erika Sawajiri, who did a surprisingly good portrayal of Nana Kimura (protagonist)
morgaine87 I didn't understood about that the woman without the eye (forgot the name) was the baby on the rails.. What did she had to do with that ghost girl (also forgot the name) who killed everybody? Nana said: so, you killed your own mother.. And then the woman without the eye said: now I can finally see my son. But who was her mother? The ghost girl? You saw that when the ghost girl was still alive she got pushed downstairs on the train, but by whom and why? And how did the baby came on the rails? I really didn't got that. And I also don't think that the baby pushed her down.. It looked like a normal hand. Later it appears she was also just a victim and obviously not the 'big source' of all. But who started this all? Who put all those people there on one pile?
gapst I've been watching a lot of Asian horror movies lately, but this one has to be the worst so far. It started out interestingly enough, but lost momentum after the first 15 minutes of the movie. The added "drama" scenes, flashback sequences and serious plot holes left me hanging. What really happened in the tunnel? Just "something terrible"??? Who started all the killing if it wasn't the ghost? What did she want returned to her????? No answers whatsoever! Overall, not very scary at all and the movie makers need to come up with a lot better ideas than this...One positive was the cute actress, but that's about it.Not recommended.
spectral_realmv1 When i first saw the movie poster for this movie, i expected it to be an extremely generic J-horror film like what most of us have been watching for the past years. I entered the theater not really expecting much plot-wise but more eye candy instead.The movie started like most J-horrors that roughly tell you the back-story to the film. It was only slightly scary and the "jump" points in this film were few and far between.Basically, the premise of this film is about a haunted train tunnel and how a girl's brother went missing due to it. The story progresses with the girl acquiring new acquaintances and setting out to solve the mystery of the ghostly sightings.This is a very generic and expected film so i would say, skip it or get it on home video instead for one of those stay-in days.
