Standard Japanese horror pro & nbsp;schoolchildren Despite the fact that the film is quite long (2 hours), it looks quite easy due to the fact that the film is divided into two parts - two different stories that are almost unrelated. The only link between these two stories is the Yoshino brothers.
The story of the first part of the film is based on the theme of the mystical double (Doppelgänger), the meeting with which brings death. This part shows the story of his younger brother, Ryoji Yoshino. He is a popular and handsome guy throughout the school, the leader of a metal band who has a girlfriend, a student of the same school - Mariko. And everything would be fine if it were not for the secret admirer of the main character of this story - a very strange and unsociable classmate Asaji, who constantly follows him. But the strangest thing is that she is sometimes seen in different places at the same time. Asaji tries to make friends with the main character, but he rejects her, and then begins a series of mysterious deaths of girls who pay special attention to Ryoji.
The second part of the film is about the cursed houses. An ordinary Japanese schoolgirl, Nakada Nohiko, lived in her home with her family. And all would be well, but their neighbors from other homes start dying in turn in a short time. And when the turn of the Nakada family's house came, they felt something was wrong and moved from there to an apartment building. But here they will fail - in the new apartment there are some very strange and creepy things - so terrible that the mother of the main character with gray hair falls unconscious in the hospital. Her father looks after her in the hospital, and thus the main character is left alone in the unfortunate apartment. This is where hell begins.
I'll summarize briefly. If you are a fan of Japanese horror, then it is worth watching - still shot very well, the acting for a Japanese film, I must say, very good. And there are places in the story that are creepy. Well, if you are not a fan of this genre, then it is unlikely that you will like this film (and it is unlikely that you will know about the existence of this film).
