This was kind of a taboo for me, since it was entirely made on computer and I tend to dislike entirely computer made animations. Okay, I still disliked the fact that it was entirely made on computer graphics, but I managed to stick with it because the story got a hold of me. I don't know how developed is the 3D world these days, since I don't play games since ages ago, but speaking about the graphics here, I can say that there were some good animations and some bad, for example, the faces looked quite realistic, but in contrast, the bodies sometimes werebad animated and badly drawn in some scenes and reminded me of those animated bodies of the first Resident Evil game days, if you know what I mean. It begins when a grown up young man is invited to a class reunion, so he ends up going to visit his old house on his old town, once there, he remembers a very unusual chapter that happened when he was a child and lived in that place... Characters were well fit into the story and they didn't felt dislocated. It had a scary “the ring” similar girl character there, that helped to kept your eyes glued on the screen. The story was built up in a good suspense and got a hold of me during most of it’s time, but when the end came, I didn’t felt like it tied very good, it happens a lot with recent horror stories and in my view it happened with this one also. It was a very entertaining nevertheless and I committed the error of watching it in the morning, the sound effects and the obscurity of some scenes were perfectly matched for a dark evening visualization. Next time I'll to keep that in mind. If you’re familiar with the recent Japanese horror cinema scene, you’ll know more or less what to expect here. Rate; 7.3/10
