Watch this if you liked: “Forest of the Living Dead”

The Good, the Bad and the Suicide Forest:

• The film plays a lot with your mind and gets you to think about what is real and what is not.

• Also, the film seems to deal more on the mental and psychological issues instead of ghosts and spirits.

• To be honest, the plot is kind of confusing with a lot of flashbacks, making you wonder about the truth.

• The film has some really decent scares, but Natalie Dormer probably isn't really cut out to be a scream queen.

Trivia:

• Natalie Dormer actually went to the Aokigahara forest for research with her Japanese driver. However, while she ventured five meters off the path to take photos, her Japanese driver wouldn't even step half an inch into the place.
