    Better than the remake, although I could see the story stretching to be made into a movie length script from its original short story format.

    A few, very FEW scary parts, but overall slow and uninteresting and with a ending which was disappointing.

    i don't believe that this is as good as Nakata's other work- sure it has all the thrills but it was lacking in suspense and true horror- i was a little dissapointed!!

    A melancholy, waterlogged, immensely sad "horror" movie. A lot of the real horror, though much more covert than the supernatural elements, comes from the themes of abandonment and regret, which come across surprisingly effectively. Hitomi Kuroki gives a smash performance as a mentally worn mother embroiled in a bitter custody battle, adding a lot of poignancy to the role.

    The ending is extremely mysterious and vaguely sad at the same time.

    EDIT: Saw the remake, made me realize that this film wasn't THAT great, dropped the rating accordingly. It's still worth watching, though.
