Viewing Notes

Precursor to the J-horror movement of the 1990s and also found footage films. If there was a proper release of this with quality subs I’d consider a higher rating. The version on YT is not good and the machine generated subtitles are pisspoor. Constantly misunderstands what is being said which being in Japanese makes it worse. At least half the subs are gibberish. Plus none of the onscreen text is translated. This would be a good movie for an indie label to pick up.

Smart programmers would double this with Ghost Actress (don’t look up). Ofc that’d be too much trouble.
