This frightening movie displays terror, shocks, hard-edged drama and creepy images. While the look is suitable atmospheric and eerie, the argument stretches plausibility to the breaking point. This is an acceptable Japanese adaptation of the novel and movie that took successfully Thailand. Nice and colorful cinematography filmed in Japan by the cameraman Katsumi . Suspenseful and mysterious musical score fitting perfectly to terror by Nathan Barr. The motion picture is professionally directed by Masayuki Ochiai in similar style to Hideo Nakata movies -The ring, Dark Water-. The director Masayuki(Infection, Dark tales, Hypnosis) is an expert on horror cinema and follows the wake of Japanese eerie phantoms of pale complexion and long hair as ¨The grudge¨ and several others. Rating : Acceptable and passable.
