In a dark dystopic future, humankind is controlled by Dorothy, a sentient supercomputer who believes she is god. To help do her bidding, she created beings known as Galerians -- humans with supernatural and psychokinetic abilities that rival no other. Enter Rion, a young man who possesses the skills of the Galerians, and unwillingly holds the key to Dorothy's destruction within his mind. As enemies search to destroy him, Rion must race against the clock to find his long lost sister and save humanity, before Dorothy and the Galerians can destroy it...
Near the ruins of an old and abandoned city, there is played a game simply known as "Otokoyo." It is said that when children play this game, they go missing one by one. Some say it is ghosts. Others say it is demons. But for Hikora, one thing is certain: his sister disappeared playing the game and he will do whatever it takes to find her, even if it means playing the game himself. He and seven others will do just that, all for their own reasons, and learn that rumors aren’t always fictitious. Escaping with their lives will become the main concern when this game of hide-and-seek turns deadly.
Both of these movies seem to be an opportunity for the graphics developers to show off what they can do with CG. Galerians is a little older, and now looks a little dated, but would have been very impressive in its time. Kakurenbo is absolutely stunning, and wouldn't look out of place as a cutscene in a game.
These movies have some very creepy undertones running through them, which makes them enjoyable viewing for any horror junkie. Though a little confusing at times, and without a satisfactory ending, I would say both are still worth a look-see.
While both seem to be compeletly different they have the horror element that ties them together giving them a similar feel along with a unique animation style. Both will leave you guessing what will happen next and have a moderitally satisfying ending. Check one out if you liked the other
