Quite eerie

This had me quite engaged from the start. I liked the twists it pulled, keeping me on edge and wondering what was going to take place. The atmospheric sounds/music added to this aswell, helping to build tension. The lighting in some moments really made bits that little bit more creepy. First time I've seen Takashi Miike's work and I did enjoy it. It had similarities to other horrors such as The Grudge with ghost like beings appearing. Which made this for me, quite a disturbing and eerie movie.

Get a new bloody sim card!!

By a customer , 23 Feb 2013

Found i enjoyed it more than i expected,storyline was ok. Always find Japanese movies more intriuging than american versions. Always come off more sinister. Good horror.

Ring ring!

By fenr1c (19 reviews) from Birmingham , 19 Jul 2012

An effective and atmospheric movie. Like someone said like most rom coms they follow the same themes and plots.

I quite enjoyed it to be honest but it's not better than the Ring or Dark Water but works in its own right and I pray that someone in America doesn't get the idea to remake it.

Would I want to watch it again? To be honest no, but I do recommend this movie.

Its just another one

By HEvans (20 reviews) from Ammanford , 12 Jan 2012

Similar film to The Grudge and The Ring. A lot of these films have similar themes to them, but yet again still a good horror/thriller. Don't watch too close to the other films as you will think you are watching them on repeat

Ten Missed Calls...

By WongOrWhite (101 reviews) , 22 Nov 2011

Yes, it is similar to the Ring/Grudge but does it matter?...there are a ton of RomComs out there that all have pretty much the same plot +/- a horse/dog/pet goldfish...anyway, once you get over that sticking point, what you have is a pretty good horror tale with some genuinely 'jumpy' moments...have seen far worse...
