Exte: Hair Extensions - 2007 * * *

What lovely hair you have...

This was a bizarre film. It wasn't so much scary as totally disturbing and seriously puts you off having any extensions of any kind put into your hair. The idea for the movie is that someone who is murdered has her hair cursed and then (unknowingly) it is used to make hair extensions for a busy and popular hair salon. Every girl who uses the hair extensions then becomes cursed herself etc etc, a typical Japanese sounding story really. Certain scenes do make your stomach churn though (such as a dead body growing her hair at a freakishly fast rate out of cuts on her arm and even out of her eye sockets) but most of the film is pretty similar to other Japanese horrors except for the idiotic beginning where the characters dictate and narrate to us as they are going about their daily duties, it is infuriating.
