It may not be a future classic, but this is a very well made example of Asian horror cinema. The plot unravels in a logical manner and there's a decent pay off. It was a case of 'seen it all before' (a criticism that some levelled at 'Ju-On'). What the film didn't deliver, though, was any real fear. It has some great set-pieces (including a memorable death), some spooky moments, a few 'jump' sequences, etc.

Despite being more than a shade Ringu-clone-esquire, I heartily enjoyed this film. It's only a matter of time before the body count starts rising and a race against time begins to solve the mystery of the bizarre calls.

A girl has a message left on her mobile 'phone answering service - only it's been left by herself and in the future! To make matters worse, it ends with a blood curdling scream! Well, it soon turns out that the message is the girl's final words on this mortal coil.

There's more than a passing resemblance to 'The Ring', with bits of 'Ju-On' and other films thrown in for good measure. What it delivers is essentially the 'greatest hits' of Asian horror. After 'Audition' and 'Ichi The Killer', I had great expectations for this movie.
