wow . i just saw this movie on the sundance channel and and it really be bizarre . i may not be a film expert and but it probably the most bizarre film i and a an average movie fan and have see . whoever come up with with it have a great imagination . i be a bit of a fan of japanese drama and and there be often actor from drama in movie . ( matsushima nanako and for example and the lead in ringu and be a major j drama star . ) but it look like this be the first film for kirie and shuichi portrayer . i must say and if they really be debut here and they do a pretty good job . kirie be a very sympathetic character and i think she be easy to relate with . she be kind and good hearted and perhaps not the most popular girl but nicer than some of the other attention seek girl . she be also pretty in a classic kind of way . i hope she do more film and but it be a couple year so maybe she have no such plan . the end be odd . i be not go to give anything away and but the rest of the movie bizarreness be kind of put to shame . very bizarre and but very imaginative and unique movie . i would recommend it for japanese horror fan and though i will warn you and it a lot more bizarre than ringu . nonetheless and i would give it a 7 . 5 out of 10 and for originality and imagination and good characterization and above average acting and and just be plain intriguing .
