This dark horror film begins with the grisly spectacle of 54 Japanese schoolgirls jumping in unison into the path of an oncoming train. This is only the first in a wave of mass suicides that sweeps across Japan, baffling the police and panicking the populace. The two police officers assigned to the case have to piece together such mystifying clues as a website seems to be predicting each wave of deaths, a coughing child who periodically calls them with enigmatic tips, and a coiled rope stitched out of human flesh. All of it may or may not have to do with a prepubescent all-girl pop group whose latest hit single seems to have hypnotized the nation. ~ Tom Vick, Rovi

    I didn't find this to be half as good as other Japanese movies. I love their take on horror and the flow of the stories. The one good thing about this movie is the question asked by the child caller. It made me think and opened my eyes. I also don't think this movie is promoting or glorify suicide. It's worth a look at.

    This movie was very interesting. I watched it til the end, enjoying it while waiting to see what all the hubbub was about. In the end my friends and I were sitting there going....huh? Yeah, we felt stupid cause we just didn't get how it all tied together. I think this is more of a cultural horror than a plain old slash and hack horror. I think in order to truly understand the plot you need to understand the culture it was made in, which sadly we did not. lol Still an interesting movie and worth a watch.
