Back of the box:
A Japanese actress comes face to face with a slew of restless spirits when
she signs on to star in a horror film -- the true story of a crazed professor's
murderous rampage that left 11 victims, including his young daughter, in its
wake -- being shot at the very site where the grisly killings took place.
The Bloody Truth:
The truth is I found the film a bit hard to follow; it drifts in and out of several
focal points and does not seem fully vested in scaring us or unraveling a
coherent mystery. At times the movie feels original and at others like the
director is trying too hard to impart the sense of disturbing fear other films
in this area do so well.
The film is worth a watch to any fan of Asian supernatural horror but just
don’t go in expecting the fear and revelations as such films like The Ring
or The Eye
Restless spirits, unhappy demons
and cursed places await you
And the rest.....
