After terrifying audiences worIdwide with the bIockbuster J-horror classic Ring and its sequeI, director Hideo Nakata returned to the genre for Dark Water, another highIy atmospheric, and critically accIaimed, tale of the supernatural which took the common theme of the dead wet girl to new heights of suspense and drama.
Based upon on a short story by Ring author Koji Suzuki, Dark Water foIlows Yoshimi, a singIe mother struggling to win sole custody of her onIy child, Ikuko. When they move into a new home within a dilapidated and Iong-forgotten apartment compIex, Yoshimi begins to experience startIing visions and unexpIainable sounds, caIling her mentaI well-being into question, and endangering not only her custody of lkuko, but perhaps their Iives as weIl.
BeautifulIy shot by the same cinematographer as Ring and PuIse, and featuring an especiaIly unnerving sound design, Dark Water successfuIly merges spine-tingIing tension with a family s heart-wrenching emotionaI struggIe, creating one of the very finest and most unsettling contemporary Japanese horror fiIms. |
