Karen (Sarah Michelle Gellar) is an exchange student working part time as a caregiver in Japan. She is assigned to a home for the day when the usual girl did not turn up.
Sarah Michelle Gellar as Karen Davis
While in the house, Karen encounters horrific circumstances that led her uncovering the mysterious events leading to multiple deaths in the house three years ago.
Spirits are trapped in the house; trapped within a curse borne from someone who died in a powerful rage. Anyone who comes into contact with that curse will not be left alone until his life is claimed.
If you decide to watch this, you can find out for yourself why there were multiple deaths three years ago and the circumstances surrounding it.
This movie, although creepy and goose bump raising, has a very predictable storyline. Also, the spirit fits exactly the image we have of Asian spirits with dishevelled long dark hair and pasty face, all thanks to Hong Kong horror flicks.
Because of it's predictability, all I was looking out for during the movie, was who dies when and how.
Toshio
When the movie ends, I couldn't help but to go through the whole movie in my mind, and think to myself, "OK, so during this scene, was Toshio a boy or a spirit?" Yes, it's a bit confusing when the movie goes on flashback mode.
