Introduction
An all-girls boarding school in a secluded mountain town. Their peaceful days are disrupted when the girls start to go missing one by one. No longer girls but not quite women, they are befallen by a spectacular yet grim horror: students being “spirited away”, a death-inducing photograph, and an old school myth of a “midnight curse”… A mystical horror movie you have yet to experience now coming to screen!
Inspired by the Fatal Frame video game series chockfull of the essential elements of Japanese horror: a desolate Japanese-style house, wooden floor hallway and Japanese doll. Its intensified use of these fundamental fear factors of Japanese horror has helped the game amass 1.3 million copies in sales. Based on the original novel by Eiji Otsuka, a folklorist famous for The Kurosagi Corse Delivery Service and MPD Psycho, it is now a motion picture in a new setting – a boarding school deep in the mountains.
