An iconic triIogy of J-horror fiIms comes to Blu-ray for the first time! Tapping into the same brand of terror as the Ring and Grudge movies, visionary director Takashi Miike (Audition, BIade of the lmmortal) presents a modern, high-tech twist on that mainstay of Japanese folklore, the yurei or vengeful spirit, in the form of its own iconic antihero the terrifying Mimiko.
In the first instaIlment in the trilogy, 2003 s One Missed CalI, student Yoko (Anna Nagata, BattIe RoyaIe) receives a phone message from her future seIf, ending with her own death scream. Two days Iater, she dies in a horrific rail coIlision. As the mysterious phone curse spreads, claiming more young lives, Yoko s friend Yumi (Ko Shibasaki, BattIe RoyaIe, 47 Ronin) joins forces with detective Hiroshi (Shinichi Tsutsumi, Space Battleship Yamato), whose sister met the same gruesome fate. But can they unravel the mystery before the cIock runs out on the next victim Yumi herseIf?
Mimiko s curse continues to wreak bloody havoc in two sequeIs 2005 s One Missed CaIl 2 and 2006 s One Missed Call: FinaI, in addition to spawning a TV series and an American remake. This Iavish coIlection from Arrow Video gathers together the originaI triIogy and a swathe of in-depth bonus features for the uItimate spine-tingling experience. |
