Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaThe suicide forest actually exists in Japan. In Japanese, it is called Aokigahara, and is at the bottom of Mount Fuji. The forest range covers around 14 square miles. Once you enter the forest, it's completely silent - no sounds of birds singing or animals rustling around. The number of suicides taking place there has increased yearly, and the Japanese government has placed signs around the perimeter of the forest, in Japanese and in English, urging people to stay away. There is a government department with the sole assignment of periodically going into the forest to remove as many bodies as possible.
- GoofsNear the end of the movie, a police officer puts Maiko into a patrol car that has the engine running as there is exhaust smoke coming out of the tail pipe. But when he gets in the car to drive away, you hear the sound of the engine being started before he drives away. No reason to start the engine when it is already running. Poor sound editing.

Featured review
Grave Halloween (2013) is a movie I recently watched on Tubi. The storyline follows an expedition and research project in a forest known for suicides, over 100 suicides per year to be exact. One of the researcher's mothers committed suicide in the forest and while she looks for answers, the answer may put the rest of the research group's lives at risk. This movie is directed by Steven R. Monroe (I Spit on Your Grave 1 & 2) and stars Kaitlyn Leeb (Locked Down), Cassi Thomson (Left Behind), Graham Wardle (In the Land of Women) and Dejan Loyola (iZombie). The storyline for this is a bit unrealistic with the numbers they share and how the issue hasn't become a national/international concern. The acting in this is very mediocre and nothing special. The horror elements are very blah but the kill scenes are actually entertaining and pretty good. I really liked both the makeup and special effects. This is one of those movies if you can ignore the storyline and acting you can enjoy some worthwhile kill scenes. I'd score this movie a 3.5-4/10 and only recommend watching it with the appropriate expectations.
